By default, the focus point of any asset used in Bynder is the center. You can change and customize the focus point if necessary. If you change the focus point, your cropped derivatives are updated on the fly, and the derivative is cropped from the focus point, not from the center.
If you are using Dynamic Asset Tranformation (DAT) and the system detects a face or group of faces, the face will be used as the focus point.
Learn how to set a focus point in DAT.
Note
- You cannot set a focus point for watermarked assets.

Let AI Facial Recognition Set the Focus Point
If you are using Dynamic Asset Transformation, you can save time and avoid setting the focus point manually by using AI Assist's facial recognition. The system can recognize faces upon asset upload and automatically set the focus point on the face instead of the center of the image.
Once facial recognition is enabled, it can only be applied to new assets, it cannot be done to existing assets in the DAM.
