Like an anchor, you may set the image URL directly, or point the
image to a WResource to perhaps generate an image on
the fly.
There are alternative methods to display or generate graphics
in Wt:
-
You may use the CSS background-image property when using
images as styling objects (see Style and Layout).
-
You can also use the vector graphics API to use graphics
primitives to paint graphics (see Vector Graphics)
Since WImage derives from WInteractWidget, it
provides the usual keyboard and mouse event handling. But images
also have support for a more fine-grained event by defining
interactive areas (see Event
areas).
