x
Horizontal translation (left/right)
y
Vertical translation(up/down)
The translate()
function is used to move the origin point of the coordinate system to a new location.
When you call the translate()
function, all subsequent drawing commands will be relative to the new origin point. This means that if you draw a shape or line at position (50, 50)
after calling translate(100, 100)
, it will actually appear at position (150, 150)
on the canvas.
