| [`getDimensions`](#getdimensions) | `function` | _ | A function which returns the `width`, `height`, and optionally `scale` (defaults to `1`), with which canvas is to be exported. |
| `maxWidthOrHeight` | `number` | _ | The maximum `width` or `height` of the exported image. If provided, `getDimensions` is ignored. |

| `exportPadding` | `number` | `10` | The `padding` to be added on canvas. |
#### getDimensions
```tsx
(width: number, height: number) => {
width: number,
height: number,
scale?: number
}
```
A function which returns the `width`, `height`, and optionally `scale` (defaults to `1`), with which canvas is to be exported.
**How to use**
```js
import { exportToCanvas } from "@excalidraw/excalidraw";
```
This function returns the canvas with the exported elements, appState and dimensions.
```jsx live
function App() {
const [canvasUrl, setCanvasUrl] = useState("");
const [excalidrawAPI, setExcalidrawAPI] = useState(null);
return (
<>
<button
className="custom-button"
onClick={async () => {
if (!excalidrawAPI) {
return
}
const elements = excalidrawAPI.getSceneElements();
if (!elements || !elements.length) {
return
}
const canvas = await exportToCanvas({
elements,
appState: {
...initialData.appState,
exportWithDarkMode: false,
},
files: excalidrawAPI.getFiles(),
getDimensions: () => { return {width: 350, height: 350}}
});
const ctx = canvas.getContext("2d");
ctx.font = "30px Virgil";
ctx.strokeText("My custom text", 50, 60);
setCanvasUrl(canvas.toDataURL());
}}
>
Export to Canvas
</button>
<div className="export export-canvas">
<img src={canvasUrl} alt="" />
</div>
<div style={{ height: "400px" }}>
<Excalidraw ref={(api) => setExcalidrawAPI(api)}
/>
