Adds a new field type to ACF allowing users to draw focal points on images. Uses Wenting Zhang’s Responsify.js to create focal points on images using jQuery.
Works similar to a traditional ACF image field, but once an image is selected and a preview is displayed, this plugin allows drawing a box around a focal point in the image using canvas. That image can then be displayed in a nice responsified fashion. View the ResponsifyJs homepage for a demo.
Image returned as either tag or object to use within themes. Includes responsify.js.
