Prefill whole canvas with color

[rajdeepbhatia]

Hi, I am trying to prefill the whole canvas with white color by doing this, but it isn't working

var ctx = $('#canvas')[0].getContext('2d');
ctx.fillStyle = '#fff';
ctx.fillRect(0, 0, 500, 500);

var sketchpad = new NewSketchpad({
   element: '#canvas',
   width: 500,
   height: 500
});

Is there any working alternative available for this? Please help!

Not sure if this will work for your specific use case, but you can just set the background style of the canvas to a specific color.

I have done it by adding bg color to the sketchpad div .! I have also added a pellette for changing the canvas bg color
