Update settings on the fly:

$('#elem').wPaint('image', '<image_data>');
$('#elem').wPaint('image', '/path/to/file.jpg');

Retrieve settings, if more than one it will return an array otherwise just the value.

console.log($('#elem').wPaint('strokeStyle'));            // #FFFF00
console.log($('.elem').wPaint('strokeStyle'));            // ['#FFFF00', '#FFFF00']

Retrieve paint object.

var wp = $('#wPaint').wPaint().data('_wPaint');
console.log(wp);                                          // {wPaint object}

Methods

Examples

Init with image and some callbacks:

<div id="wPaint"></div>
down: <input id="canvasDown" type="text" />
move: <input id="canvasMove" type="text" />
up:   <input id="canvasUp" type="text" />

<script type="text/javascript">
    $("#wPaint").wPaint({
        image: <image_data>,
        drawDown: function(e, mode){ $("#canvasDown").val(this.settings.mode + ": " + e.pageX + ',' + e.pageY); },
        drawMove: function(e, mode){ $("#canvasMove").val(this.settings.mode + ": " + e.pageX + ',' + e.pageY); },
        drawUp: function(e, mode){ $("#canvasUp").val(this.settings.mode + ": " + e.pageX + ',' + e.pageY); }
    });
</script>

Init with background (bg is saved with image but cannot be altered):

<div id="wPaint"></div>

<script type="text/javascript">
    $("#wPaint").wPaint({
        image: './some/path/imagepreload.png',
        imageBg: './some/path/imagebg.png'
    });
</script>

Set image on the fly:

<div id="wPaint"></div>
    
<script type="text/javascript">
    $("#wPaint").wPaint();

    $('#wPaint').wPaint('image', '<image_data>')
</script>

Get image data:

<div id="wPaint"></div>
<img id="canvasImage" src=""/>

<script type="text/javascript">
    var imageData = $("#wPaint").wPaint("image");
            
    $("#canvasImage").attr('src', imageData);
</script>
