Example

// Paste image2 onto image1 at (100, 50)
result = ImagePaste( image1, image2, 100, 50 );

// Using the alias

image1.drawImage( image2, 0, 0 );

Notes

• Both image1 and image2 can be BoxImage objects or the names of images in the current context.

• The default coordinates are (0, 0) if not specified.

• The operation modifies the base image in place when used as a member function.

• Returns the modified image object for chaining or further processing.

• This BIF is also available as ImageDrawImage and as member functions paste and drawImage.
