Q: HTML5 Canvas change background color

Viewed 25513

I am just wondering is it possible to change Canvas color from function call? I have this code with circle inside I would like to change outside color (background):

var canvads = document.getElementById('canvas')
var context = canvas.getContext('2d');

function circle() {
  var centerX = 0;
  var centerY = 0;
  var radius = 78;
  context.clearRect(0, 0, window.innerWidth,window.innerHeight);

  context.fillStyle = 'rgba(0,0,0,0.5)';
  context.fillRect(0,0,window.innerWidth,window.innerHeight);

  context.translate(canvas.width / 2, canvas.height / 2);

  context.scale(1.5, 2);

  context.beginPath();
  context.arc(centerX, centerY, radius, 0, 5 * Math.PI, false);

  context.lineWidth = 5;
  context.stroke();

  context.fillStyle = 'rgba(0,0,0,1)';

  context.globalCompositeOperation = 'destination-out';
  context.fill();

  context.globalCompositeOperation = 'source-over';
}

function change_color() {
  context.fillStyle = 'rgba(0,255,0,1)';
  context.fill();
}

circle()
