Picture Widget
The Picture Widget displays a vector-based picture stored in an album resource. A picture widget is drawn using the Slug Library.
The widget color is not used.
Settings
The following settings are available specifically for Picture Widgets.

Description |
Picture Settings |
|
Album |
Specifies the album resource containing the picture. |
Picture index |
Specifies the index of the picture within the album. |
Scale to fit |
If enabled, scales the picture to the largest size that fits within the widget's bounding box without changing the picture's aspect ratio. |
Picture Rendering Settings |
|
Render with optical weight |
Specifies that the coverage values calculated on the boundaries of a picture are to be increased for heavier appearance. As with text, this is used to improve visibility of small details. |
Render symmetric band splits |
Specifies whether the band-split optimization is applied to the picture. This setting reduces rendering time by using curve lists sorted in opposite orders for the negative and positive halves of each band in a component. This has no effect on the visual appearance of a picture, but it can increase performance for pictures rendered at large sizes. This can have a negative effect on performance when pictures are rendered at small sizes, so it should not be enabled in those cases. |
Render adaptive supersampling |
Specifies whether the picture is rendered with adaptive supersampling for high quality at very small sizes. |
Render linear curve optimization |
Enables an optimization that allows pictures with many polygonal components to be rendered faster. |
Use bounding polygons |
Specifies whether the bounding polygon optimization is enabled for the picture. This setting reduces the number of pixels covered by each component by using a tight polygon with 3–6 sides instead of a quad. This has no effect on the visual appearance of a picture, but it can increase performance for pictures rendered at large sizes. This can have a negative effect on performance when picture are rendered at small sizes, so it should not be enabled in those cases. |
