Re: [Inkscape-devel] Inkscape scripting API (Draft)

At a glance, I don't see API for bitmap manipulation: placing, sizing, moving ... I am very interested in scripting the creation of documents combining bitmap, vector and text.

Thanks, Kent

I've added a function to import an image. It returns an id like all the other shape creation functions and can be used with any of the (non-path-specific) API functions to move, rotate, resize, set width/height (will distort), etc. It pretty much behaves like a rectangle without path or style.

The only thing you can't do right now is trace it into a path, since that is a complicated operation with many variables.
