In this tutorial, we will learn how to move a Line object to the top of the draw object stack using FabricJS. Line element is one of the basic elements provided in FabricJS. It is used to create straight lines. Since line elements are geometrically one-dimensional and contain no interiors, they are never filled. We can create a line object by creating a fabric.Line instance, specifying the x and y coordinates of the line and adding it to the canvas. To move the Line object to the top of the drawing object stack, we use the bringToFront method.
bringToFront(): fabric.Object
Let's look at a code example to see the output when using the bringToFront method. bringToFront method moves the object to the top of the drawing object stack. In this example, use the bringToFront method to move line1 above line2.

In this example, we use three line objects, line1, line2 and line3. Although they have been added to the canvas in numerical order, line1 is clearly at the top. This is because we used the bringToFront method, which sends line1 to the top of the draw object stack.
