Add picture to the node background

[aabilityuk]

Hi, first of all I want to thank the developers for efforts and spent time for lib dev!

Is it possible to add picture to the node background and custom setup the pins distance and positions inside of the node?

If not, is there any plans in future to add this feature?

Thank you!

It seems like there is no support for this library! I ask the second or even third question., but no answer

The developer has a life too. Let him some time to answer!

Hi, sorry for late response. Both work and vacation without internet happened in very quick succession.

Back to the topic. You can draw on node background using:

ImDrawList* GetNodeBackgroundDrawList(NodeId nodeId);

It is used in blueprints demo to draw textured title part on the node (see: code). You can adjust node style to make background fully transparent and draw your own if you wish. You can use ImDrawListSplitter to split draw list to multiple channels furthers for layering.
