Version 1.4.0

• [BACK_INCOMPAT] JSON and Cufon are no longer included in default build

• [BACK_INCOMPAT] Change default objects' originX/originY to left/top

• [BACK_INCOMPAT] fabric.StaticCanvas#backgroundImage and fabric.StaticCanvas#overlayImage are fabric.Image instances. fabric.StaticCanvas#backgroundImageOpacity, fabric.StaticCanvas#backgroundImageStretch, fabric.StaticCanvas#overlayImageLeft and fabric.StaticCanvas#overlayImageTop were removed.

• [BACK_INCOMPAT] fabric.Text#backgroundColor is now fabric.Object#backgroundColor

• [BACK_INCOMPAT] Remove fabric.Object#toGrayscale and fabric.Object#overlayFill since they're too specific

• [BACK_INCOMPAT] Remove fabric.StaticCanvas.toGrayscale since we already have that logic in fabric.Image.filters.Grayscale.

• [BACK_INCOMPAT] Split centerTransform into the properties centeredScaling and centeredRotation. Object rotation now happens around originX/originY point UNLESS centeredRotation=true. Object scaling now happens non-centered UNLESS centeredScaling=true.

Version 1.3.0

• [BACK_INCOMPAT] Remove selectable, hasControls, hasBorders, hasRotatingPoint, transparentCorners, perPixelTargetFind from default object/json representation of objects.

• [BACK_INCOMPAT] Object rotation now happens around originX/originY point UNLESS centerTransform=true.

• [BACK_INCOMPAT] fabric.Text#textShadow has been removed - new fabric.Text.shadow property (type of fabric.Shadow).

• [BACK_INCOMPAT] fabric.BaseBrush shadow properties are combined into one property => fabric.BaseBrush.shadow (shadowColor, shadowBlur, shadowOffsetX, shadowOffsetY no longer exist).

• [BACK_INCOMPAT] fabric.Path.fromObject is now async. fabric.Canvas#loadFromDatalessJSON is deprecated.

Version 1.2.0

• [BACK_INCOMPAT] Make fabric.Object#toDataURL synchronous.

• [BACK_INCOMPAT] fabric.Text#strokeStyle -> fabric.Text#stroke, for consistency with other objects.

• [BACK_INCOMPAT] fabric.Object.setActive(…) -> fabric.Object.set('active', …). fabric.Object.isActive is gone (use fabric.Object.active instead)

• [BACK_INCOMPAT] fabric.Group#objects -> fabric.Group._objects.

Version 1.1.0

• [BACK_INCOMPAT] fabric.Text#setFontsize becomes fabric.Object#setFontSize.

• [BACK_INCOMPAT] fabric.Canvas.toDataURL now accepts options object instead linear arguments. fabric.Canvas.toDataURLWithMultiplier is deprecated; use fabric.Canvas.toDataURL({ multiplier: … }) instead
