This is a simple p5 extension to make raised canvases in P5, giving sketches a bit more depth.

1. Include the RaisedCanvas.js in the index page
2. Create any global variable that references RaisedCanvas(), var canv = RaisedCanvas()
3. Fill the RaisedCanvas() with parameters to your liking.

Parameters for this script go in this order, the only necessary ones are the first three. There are default behaviors for the rest.

• (float) width - the real width of the canvas
• (float) height - the real height of the canvas
• (float) buffer - the buffer around the canvas that you will draw on
• (vector) light direction - the direction of the shadow, defaults towards the bottom right
• (color) background color - the color of the background, defaults to white
• (color) foreground color - the color of the raised foreground canvas, defaults to grey
• (color) shadow color - the color of the shadow, defaults to a mid black
• (int) blur amount - how much blur to use, defaults to 1. *be aware things will slow down at higher numbers
• (bool) use mouse - whether to use the mouse or not to update the light direction
• (bool) clear background - whether or not to clear the background

The basics of how to use this are in the sketch.js
