Node image obscured

When I use a shape for a node such as "MultiDocument" or "MultiProc" and I place a picture in the top left corner of the node, the picture is partially or completely obscured ,depending on the size of the node(See image). Is there any way to not have the picture obscured?



Note: The position must be top-left.

Thanks,
Alan

Bitmap images are always clipped to the box outlines. You could use custom drawing to draw the image yourself, clearing the clip region before that. Metafiles are not clipped, so another possibility is to use WMF images instead of bitmaps.

I used wmf files and it worked, however it seems to have negative effects on the overview (nodes in the overview appear as yellow cubes).

Thanks,
Alan

That might happen if the metafile contains instructions that change the mapping mode. Try to set Box.PicturePos to picStrecth, and call the ShapeTemplate.SetPictureRect method to specify that the image should be stretched in some region of your shapes (e.g. the top-left corner). Then the metafile might appear correctly in the overview too.
