I need to get the average color from a rectangle area of an image using JavaScript.
I tried using tracking.js but it doesn't allow to specify areas instead of single pixels.

- 1 @WillReese If you think this is a duplicate, you should flag the question as duplicate instead of just adding a ment with a link. Moreover, from the question I understand that the OP is trying to get the average color of an area of an image, not from a single value. I think it may not be clear enough though, but before marking this as duplicate and/or down-voting, you should consider asking for clarification. – Danziger Commented Jun 15, 2017 at 1:53
- 1 @Danziger The link I provided simply has useful information if you can use a canvas to solve your issue. Its not quite a duplicate of that question. Also, I didn't downvote. – Will Reese Commented Jun 15, 2017 at 1:56
- @MycoClaro WillReese already referred to the question/answer that contains that link you posted, so there's no need to copy that link here too. Actually, maybe you both happened to be menting at the same time, but you should prefer using SO links that contains a full explanation rather than external links that just contain working code. – Danziger Commented Jun 15, 2017 at 2:03
