    Using image cropper to create a focus for background image

    I am using the media picker to select an image for the background of an element.

    I like the way the image cropper works, so I would like to use the focal point of the crop determine the background-position of the background-image.

    ie, if they focus on the top right then : background-position: top right;

    Or maybe just use a grid of 9 radio buttons to represent the position? Has anyone ever done this?

    Hi Richard

    I have never done this but would it present issues if you use a focal point on the outer edge of the image and "run out" of image to display ? Or are you setting the image to cover the space.

    Otherwise, and just thinking out loud, is the focal point a pixel based value ? If so you could get that and do some simple maths with the image dimensions to get a percentage for placement.

    Again, just spit balling and probably way off track, but thought I'd share.

    Cheers, Nigel
