I would like to add a  focal point into /mnt/overlay/dam/gui/content/assets/assetedit.html where the author can be able to focus specific image points and then I can return like .../myimage.png?focus-at=50,40

any Idea or advice would be appreciated

Thank you.

Hi JohanT,

In AEM 6.4, focal point is part of OOTB feature. Unfortunately, in AEM 6.3, it requires custom solution to achieve such requirements. There's a number of front-end tool that you might want to look into:

Focal Point: Pure HTML/CSS Adaptive Images Framework

NodeJS, The Focal Point, library that you might also want to take a look. See the demo here: GitHub & BitBucket HTML Preview

hi Sothea@WEBCONSOL​, is there a tutorial on how to use this feature in AEM 6.4? I have been looking around and can't find anything.

Thanks in advance! :-)
