Description Christian Ridderström 2006-12-18 21:01:04 UTC 
I'd like some way to embed an image in a diagram.

I know about the image object, but that uses a path to an external image.
Since I would like the diagram to be correct on both a windows and a linux
system, I obviously get into problems with the path then.

Alternatively, it might work if it was possible to specify alternative paths
to the inserted image. Then if the first path doesn't work, the second path
will be used.

Comment 1 Lars Clausen 2007-01-14 15:12:46 UTC 
Actual embedding would be preferable.  It should be selectable in the save dialog.  Just plonking the whole file contents in there with CDATA should do it.

IMO should not hold up 0.97, removing target milestone.
