FEAT: The option to add images or videos as a data-attribute

[Neomas]

I'm looking for the option to add images or videos inside the blob. This way they could show on hover in a similar way as the tooltips do. Is this something that might be possible

?

Super interesting use case! I think that should be possible to add. Could you clarify how would you like such a feature to work, and what would be the appropriate API for you?

I think the best would be to use Blobity's JS API to achieve such behavior, where you could set a specific image/video on the blob by calling something like below when you enter specific element, or whenever really:

blobity.setMedia([url here, or maybe some better reference to the media]);

and later

blobity.resetMedia();

to get rid of the image and fall back to the original color.

It could also be done with the data attributes like data-blobity-media, but there is much less space for any additional settings like the positioning of the image/video, or stuff like that.

Would that work, or do you have some more requirements in mind for this feature?

I think using setMedia() and resetMedia() would be a clean way to implement it.
It would be handy to be able to use setMedia() for setting the media and only showing it when there's a 'data-blobity-media' tag on an element, similar to data-blobity-magnetic.

Having separate options for when the media shows might be interesting too. (size, blending mode, object positioning, object fit, ...)
