Vistaschange the alpha for the background color of the canvas
Hi guy i am trying to clone colol wheel picker from adobe color wheel, i am having a problem with changing the alpha for the color wheel, the code i used to generate the color wheel is referenced from here.Below is the code i use to change the alpha for the background of the canvas(default alpha is 255), but it's not working, i still can't figure out why
useEffect(() => {
const canvas = canvasRef.current;
const ctx = canvas.getContext("2d");
let ImageData = ctx.getImageData(0, 0, canvas.width, canvas.height);
for (var i = 0; i < canvas.height; i++)
for (var j = 0; j < canvas.width; j++)
if ((i + 1) % 4 === 0) {
ImageData.data[i] = 150;
}
ctx.putImageData(ImageData, 0, 0); //put image data back
}, []);
you can find full code and demo in here, thank you

I'm guessing that you want to change the alpha value of each color component contained in the ImageData array, are you?
In this case your for-loop is simply wrong. For illustrative purposes try something like this:
let canvas = {
width: 100,
height: 20
};
let values = [];
for (var i = 0; i < canvas.height; i++)
for (var j = 0; j < canvas.width; j++)
if ((i + 1) % 4 === 0) {
values.push(i);
}
document.getElementById("result").innerText = values.toString();#result {
width: 20em;
display: block;
word-break: break-all;
}<span id="result"></span>If you run the code above you'll notice that the only unique values we get are 3, 7 ,11, 15 and 19.
If you want to change the alpha of the whole ImageData array, you simply need to loop over it and change any 4th value. For example:
let ImageData = ctx.getImageData(0, 0, canvas.width, canvas.height);
for (let i = 0; i < ImageData.length; i += 4) {
ImageData.data[i] = 150;
}

If changing the alpha is what you need, you should be using the canvas globalAlpha:
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/CanvasRenderingContext2D/globalAlpha
Here is an example drawing the same shape with different alpha values
canvas = document.getElementById("cv0");
ctx = canvas.getContext('2d')
ctx.fillStyle = "red"
function draw(x, y, alpha) {
ctx.globalAlpha = alpha
ctx.beginPath()
ctx.moveTo(x, y)
ctx.arc(x+20, y-10, 30, 0, 6)
ctx.fill()
ctx.globalAlpha = 1
}
draw(10, 40, 0.4)
draw(80, 40, 0.7)
draw(150, 40, 1)<canvas id='cv0' width=200 height=90></canvas>When you provide a sample snippet please remove all other functions, variables and anything else that is not relevant to the problem at hand, read this for more info:
https://stackoverflow.com/help/minimal-reproducible-example
that will save a lot of time to everyone reading your code for the first time, and you increase your chances of getting a fast response.
Here is my changes to your code snippet:

I'm using the globalAlpha to draw two circles (like yours just smaller) with different alpha
