Fabric.js object:selected, object not selected

You need:

canvas.on('selection:cleared', function() {  ...});

Take a look at Events Demo and Events Section in tutorial.

jquery angularjs fabricjs

For fabricjs 2.0 branch the events for selection on canvas should be as follows:

canvas.on('selection:created', function () {   //...});canvas.on('selection:cleared', function () {   //...});

the selected event is for individual objects on canvas

var rect = new fabric.Rect({ width: 100, height: 50, fill: 'green' });rect.on('selected', function() {    console.log('selected a rectangle');});
