There is a plug-in for GIMP that fills a selection with the average color of that selection. It's useful for creating polygon art. Does such beast exist for Inkscape or could one be created easily?
You mean, automatically? The dropper tool does this, too, but manually, when you click+drag (it's what I do).
The Voronoi extension doesn't average, but it can take on the color of the objects below. From there, you can probably add averaging (export as PNG, match regions between PNG and triangle, average, apply color to triangle).
The Spray tool can also spray objects in the color below. If you combine that with the Voronoi extension, it gets faster (but you need to remove a couple dots).
Yes, I'm just looking for a way to speed up the manual process of using the dropper on lots of shapes. It would actually be more color accurate if the color was averaged from the whole shape, not just the dropper selection circle. I'll see if the Voronoi method helps.
