Events not binding to drawLine() about jcanvas HOT 2 CLOSED

Lines are weird in that they only respond to events when the mouse reacts with any part of their filled regions. To see this, set a fillStyle on your line to some noticeable color. Anywhere where you see this color touching your line will be a hotspot for events. However, I doubt you will be able to see it because the fill regions for paths are only created between any two points on the path. And, because a single line only has two points, you will not see the fill that is below the stroke of the line (which would have no thickness anyway because, again, it's just a straight line).

Example below does not bind mouseover event. Should this be working?

Okay thanks @caleb531, Im going to try and use a rectangle instead but will need to brush up on some maths first :)

Will post a solution for future reference if I have any luck.
