            ...markup_editor_locale_en_gb,
        },
        src: 'image.jpeg',
    });
</script>

createMarkupEditorToolbar

This is a helper function to create the Markup Editor toolbar. If no parameters are passed the function creates the default Markup Editor toolbar array.

We can assign the return value of this function to the markupEditorToolbar property to update the toolbar.

<!DOCTYPE html>

<head>
    <link rel="stylesheet" href="./pintura.css" />
</head>

<style>
    .pintura-editor {
        height: 600px;
    }
</style>

<div id="editor"></div>

<script type="module">
    import {
        appendDefaultEditor,
        createMarkupEditorToolbar,
    } from './pintura.js';

    const editor = appendDefaultEditor('#editor', {
        src: 'image.jpeg',
        markupEditorToolbar: createMarkupEditorToolbar(),
    });
</script>

To create a custom toolbar we can either pass an array of strings or an array of arrays.

<!DOCTYPE html>

<head>
    <link rel="stylesheet" href="./pintura.css" />
</head>

<style>
    .pintura-editor {
        height: 600px;
    }
</style>

<div id="editor"></div>

<script type="module">
    import {
        appendDefaultEditor,
        createMarkupEditorToolbar,
    } from './pintura.js';

    const editor = appendDefaultEditor('#editor', {
        src: 'image.jpeg',
        markupEditorToolbar: createMarkupEditorToolbar([
            'eraser',
            'sharpie',
            'rectangle',
        ]),
    });
</script>

Each tool key ('eraser', 'sharpie', 'rectangle') links to a label and icon in the markup locale file. It also links to a shape style for that key, this style is defined in the markupEditorToolStyles property.

To find the label and optional icon the first character of the tool key is automatically uppercased and then the key is appended to shapeLabelTool to get the label, and shapeIconTool to get the icon.

'sharpie' -> 'Sharpie' -> locale.shapeLabelToolSharpie
'sharpie' -> 'Sharpie' -> locale.shapeIconToolSharpie

We can also pass an array instead of a string. In this case the first index of the array should be the tool key.

The array can be either two or three items in length.

// The label for key 'sharpie' should be available in the locale object
createMarkupEditorToolbar([['sharpie', { disabled: true }]]);

// The label 'Pen' is used
createMarkupEditorToolbar([['sharpie', 'Pen']]);

// The label 'Pen' is used and the tool is disabled
createMarkupEditorToolbar([['sharpie', 'Pen', { disabled: true }]]);

The example below will define three tools and disable the eraser tool.

createMarkupEditorToolbar([
    ['eraser', { disabled: true }],
    'sharpie',
    'rectangle',
]);

In the example below we add a custom 'marker' tool. It'll use the label 'Marker' and the icon defined in the icon property. The style of the tool will be defined with key 'marker'.

createMarkupEditorToolbar([
    ['eraser', { disabled: true }],
    'sharpie',
    ['marker', 'Marker', { icon: '<g></g>' }]
    'rectangle',
]);

createMarkupEditorToolStyles

Running this helper function without parameters will return the default tool styles.

We can assign the return value of this function to the markupEditorToolStyles to update the tool default styles.

<!DOCTYPE html>

<head>
    <link rel="stylesheet" href="./pintura.css" />
</head>

<style>
    .pintura-editor {
        height: 600px;
    }
</style>

<div id="editor"></div>

<script type="module">
    import {
        appendDefaultEditor,
        createMarkupEditorToolStyle,
        createMarkupEditorToolStyles,
    } from './pintura.js';

    const editor = appendDefaultEditor('#editor', {
        src: 'image.jpeg',
        markupEditorToolStyles: createMarkupEditorToolStyles(),
    });
</script>

We can add custom styles by passing a configuration object to the function, use the createMarkupEditorToolStyle function to create a custom style object.

The createMarkupEditorToolStyles function will merge the passed configuration object with the default tool styles. This allows adding tool styles or altering existing tool styles.

Let's take a look at the createMarkupEditorToolStyle function to see how we can assign a custom style.

createMarkupEditorToolStyle

The createMarkupEditorToolStyle function expects three parameters, the type of the shape, the shape properties that should be assigned and the shape options. The return value should be set to a tool key in the markupEditorToolStyles object.

Type can be either 'path', 'rectangle', 'ellipse', 'line', or 'text'. The function will return a set of default styles.

Below we create a custom "marker" tool and style. We use the disableStyle property to prevent adjusting the strokeWidth and strokeColor. We also use the createDefaultColorOptions function to set the default yellow color to the strokeColor of the shape.

<!DOCTYPE html>

<head>
    <link rel="stylesheet" href="./pintura.css" />
</head>

<style>
    .pintura-editor {
        height: 600px;
    }
</style>

<div id="editor"></div>

<script type="module">
    import {
        appendDefaultEditor,
        createDefaultColorOptions,
        createMarkupEditorToolStyle,
        createMarkupEditorToolStyles,
        createMarkupEditorToolbar,
    } from './pintura.js';

    const editor = appendDefaultEditor('#editor', {
        src: 'image.jpeg',
        markupEditorToolStyles: createMarkupEditorToolStyles({
            // key, style
            marker: createMarkupEditorToolStyle('path', {
                strokeWidth: '5%',
                strokeColor: createDefaultColorOptions().yellow,
                disableStyle: ['strokeWidth'],
            }),
        }),
        markupEditorToolbar: createMarkupEditorToolbar([
            'eraser',
            'sharpie',
            // key, label
            ['marker', 'Marker'],
            'rectangle',
            'ellipse',
            'arrow',
            'text',
        ]),
    });
</script>

createMarkupEditorShapeStyleControls

The createMarkupEditorShapeStyleControls function creates the default set of shape style controls which can be assigned to the markupEditorShapeStyleControls property.

We can use this method to override default style options. Set a style property to false to disable it or set a property to a list of options to override the default options. We can also use this function to add custom option controls using createMarkupEditorOptionsControl

Disable a shape style control

This will disable the fontFamily dropdown.

<!DOCTYPE html>

<head>
    <link rel="stylesheet" href="./pintura.css" />
</head>

<style>
    .pintura-editor {
        height: 600px;
    }
</style>

<div id="editor"></div>

<script type="module">
    import {
        appendDefaultEditor,
        createMarkupEditorShapeStyleControls,
    } from './pintura.js';

    const editor = appendDefaultEditor('#editor', {
        src: 'image.jpeg',
        markupEditorShapeStyleControls: createMarkupEditorShapeStyleControls({
            fontFamilyOptions: false,
        }),
    });
</script>

Change shape style control values

This will change the default fontFamily dropdown options.

<!DOCTYPE html>

<head>
    <link rel="stylesheet" href="./pintura.css" />
</head>

<style>
    .pintura-editor {
        height: 600px;

<div id="editor"></div>

<script type="module">
    import {
        appendDefaultEditor,
        createMarkupEditorShapeStyleControls,
    } from './pintura.js';

    const editor = appendDefaultEditor('#editor', {
        src: 'image.jpeg',
        markupEditorShapeStyleControls: createMarkupEditorShapeStyleControls({
            fontFamilyOptions: [
                ['arial', 'Arial'],
                ['open-sans', 'Open Sans'],
                ['courier', 'Courier'],
                // Define additional custom fonts here
            ],
        }),
    });
</script>

Customizing the color picker

The color picker control can be configured using the following properties.

Name Default Description
enablePicker true Toggles the hue picker on/off.
enableOpacity true Toggles the opacity slider on/off.
enableInput false Toggles the hex color input on/off.
enablePresets true Toggles the preset palette on/off.
enableEyeDropper false Toggles the eye dropper on/off.

The enableInput property enables a hex color input.

The enableEyeDropper property enables an eye dropper button, please note this is currently only supported on Blink based browsers.

These properties can be used with:

  • createMarkupEditorColorControl
  • createMarkupEditorBackgroundColorControl
  • createMarkupEditorFontColorControl
  • createMarkupEditorStrokeColorControl

                }
            ),
        }),
    });
</script>

Font size input

Using the enableInput property we can enable a font size input on the fontSize and lineHeight controls. Note that this is only possible if we're using absolute font size values.

    // image file to use as source
    imageFile,

    // the size of the image
    imageSize,

    // the image state to apply
    imageState,

    // the selection to use

Mime type of the mask and shape background, defaults to image/png for mask and input image mime type for image.

How to use the function

import { createRetouchShape } from '@pqina/pintura';

// `editor` is a reference to a Pintura instance

const await retouchShape = createRetouchShape(
    // this passes the necessary information about the image to the shape helper function
    editor.imageFile,
    editor.imageSize,
    editor.imageState,

    // duplicate editor selection array because often we'll clear it after
    [...editor.imageSelection],

    // function that provides the ImageData
    (imageBlob, maskBlob, { shape, controller }) => {
        // here we can call a third-party service to manipulate the imageData

        // when we get new imageData back we can use it to update the `shape` backgroundImage

        // we can use controller.abort() to cancel
    },
    // optional options
    {
        // current retouches to render so existing retouches are used to calculate the new image
        retouches = editor.imageManipulation,

        // limit mask to this size (from center of mask shapes)
        maxSize = imageSize,

        // extra padding around mask area
        padding = 15,

        // hooks for ui updates
        didCreateDraft = (draft) => {
            // add the draft to the imageManipulation array so we can see changes right away
            editor.imageManipulation = [
                ...editor.imageManipulation,
                draftShape,
            ];
        },
    }
);

// now we have our final `retouchShape` we can update the imageManipulation array once more
editor.imageManipulation = editor.imageManipulation.map((shape) => {
    if (retouchShape.id !== shape.id) return shape;
    return retouchShape;
});
