ImagePainter

The ImagePainter is to draw an image on the background. This might be an arbitrary image from the local file system. Supported images types are "jpg", "gif" and "png".

The position is set by setting the lower left point in absolute coordinates. The image can be resized either independently per dimension or with keeping the proportions automatically when changing the value for one dimension.

The ImagePainter does not support metric. It just draws the specified image at the specified position with the specified size. If a SpringEmbedderPositioner instance is active, one must ignore the metric units on the preference page.
