import-drawing 3.0

import-drawing filename

Reads an image file into the drawing, scaling it to the size of the world, while retaining the original aspect ratio of the image. The image is centered in the drawing. The old drawing is not cleared first.

Agents cannot sense the drawing, so they cannot interact with or process images imported by import-drawing. If you need agents to sense an image, use import-pcolors or import-pcolors-rgb.

The following image file formats are supported: BMP, JPG, GIF, and PNG. If the image format supports transparency (alpha), that information will be imported as well.

Note: This primitive is not compatible with NetLogo Web. If you wish to import a drawing with the same code and the same behavior in both NetLogo and NetLogo Web, see import-a:drawing.
