Abstract: In embodiments of drawing HTML elements, an HTML drawing application (108) can receive, via a drawing area interface (112), drawing-input (208) to specify a size and a location of an HTML element (210) to be created in an HTML page (202). The HTML drawing application (108) can then initiate a display of visual feedback on a drawing surface (116) that overlays the HTML page (202) in the drawing area interface (112) as the drawing-input (208) is received, and create the HTML element in the HTML page based on the size and the location specified by the drawing-input. In some embodiments, the drawing surface (116) is an HTML5 canvas element.

Abstract: A method for creating a canvas element for a 3D object to be displayed in a browser includes: receiving a user input for a selection of a 3D object, which is to be displayed in the browser; receiving a user input for a location in the browser for displaying the 3D object; and receiving a user input for a size of the 3D object in the browser. The method further includes: receiving a user input for displaying the 3D object at the location and for the 3D object to have the size; creating a canvas element having location information for the location and size information for the size and in which the 3D object is to be displayed where the canvas element is created based on receiving the user input for displaying the 3D object; and displaying the 3D object in the canvas element in the browser.

Abstract: A method operable on a computing device for copying a drawing object includes displaying, in the browser a set of drawing objects in a first canvas element, and receiving a selection of a first drawing object from the set of drawing objects. The method further includes capturing image information of the first drawing object based on receiving the selection of the first drawing object, and specifying instructions for a second canvas element. The second canvas element is independent from the first canvas element. The method further includes specifying instructions for a second drawing object where the second drawing object is a copy of the first drawing object. The method further includes retrieving the image information for displaying the second drawing object in the second canvas element, and displaying, in the browser, the second drawing object in the second canvas element according to the image information.

Abstract: A method operable on a computer is provided for creating a canvas element for displaying 3D objects in the canvas element in a browser. The method includes capturing a first size of a first canvas element in which a first set of 3D objects is displayed in the first canvas element in the browser, and includes capturing a second size of a second canvas element in which a second set of 3D objects is displayed in the second canvas element in the browser. The method further includes creating a third canvas element having a third size that is a union of the first size and the second size based on capturing the first size and the second size. The method further includes displaying in the browser the first and the second sets of 3D objects in the third canvas element.
