I just started using Fabric.js (I have to say, I'm impressed).
I want to add a grid over the fabric objects. In the following code, I am putting my grid canvas right over on the Fabric canvas. The problem here is that, I now cannot move my fabric objects!

context.lineWidth = 0.5;
context.strokeStyle = color;
// horizontal grid lines

context.beginPath();
context.moveTo(j, 0);
context.lineTo(j, canvas.height);
context.closePath();
context.stroke();
}
context.restore();
}
renderGrid(10,15, "gray");
});
});//]]>
var canvas = new fabric.Canvas('rubber');
canvas.add(new fabric.Circle({ radius: 30, fill: '#f55', top: 100, left: 100 }));
canvas.selectionColor = 'rgba(0,255,0,0.3)';
canvas.selectionBorderColor = 'red';
canvas.selectionLineWidth = 5;

I am hoping that there is a way to do this in Fabric itself.
Any help would be awesome, thanks!
Try this:
function draw_grid(grid_size) {
grid_size || (grid_size = 25);
currentCanvasWidth = canvas.getWidth();
currentcanvasHeight = canvas.getHeight();
// Drawing vertical lines
var x;
for (x = 0; x <= currentCanvasWidth; x += grid_size) {
this.grid_context.moveTo(x + 0.5, 0);
this.grid_context.lineTo(x + 0.5, currentCanvasHeight);
}
// Drawing horizontal lines
var y;
for (y = 0; y <= currentCanvasHeight; y += grid_size) {
this.grid_context.moveTo(0, y + 0.5);
this.grid_context.lineTo(currentCanvasWidth, y + 0.5);
}
grid_size = grid_size;
this.grid_context.strokeStyle = "black";
this.grid_context.stroke();
}
