  <p>This GtkApplication displays an image file from the current directory.</p>

  <note><p>
    If the image file is not loaded successfully, the image will contain a
    "broken image" icon. <file>filename.png</file> needs to be in the
    current directory for this code to work.

  from gi.repository import Gtk
import sys


class MyWindow(Gtk.ApplicationWindow):
    # create a window

    def __init__(self, app):
        Gtk.Window.__init__(self, title="Welcome to GNOME", application=app)
        self.set_default_size(300, 300)

        # create an image
        image = Gtk.Image()

class MyApplication(Gtk.Application):

    def __init__(self):
        Gtk.Application.__init__(self)

    def do_activate(self):
        win = MyWindow(self)

        Gtk.Application.do_startup(self)

app = MyApplication()
exit_status = app.run(sys.argv)
sys.exit(exit_status)

  </code>

  <p>Another way to obtain what we have in the example is to create the image as
  an instance of another class and add it to the instance of
  <code>MyWindow</code> in the <code>do_activate(self)</code> method:</p>

  <code mime="text/x-python">
    # a class to create a window
    class MyWindow(Gtk.ApplicationWindow):
    def __init__(self, app):
        Gtk.Window.__init__(self, title="Welcome to GNOME", application=app)
        self.set_default_size(300, 300)

    # a class to create an image
    class MyImage(Gtk.Image):
    def __init__(self):
        Gtk.Image.__init__(self)
        self.set_from_file("gnome-image.png")

    class MyApplication(Gtk.Application):
    def __init__(self):
        Gtk.Application.__init__(self)

    def do_activate(self):
        # create an instance of MyWindow
        win = MyWindow(self)
        # create an instance of MyImage and add it to the window
        win.add(MyImage())
        # show the window and everything on it
        win.show_all()
  </code>

  <note>
    <p>To use this code snippet, you will need to add the code that imports
    <code>Gtk</code> and <code>GdkPixbuf</code> from <code>gi.repository</code>
    and lines that instantiate the <code>MyApplication</code> window.</p>

  <title>Useful methods for an Image widget</title>

  <list>
    <item>
      <p>To load an image over a network use
      <code>set_from_pixbuf(pixbuf)</code>, where <code>pixbuf</code> is a
      <link href="https://developer.gnome.org/gdk-pixbuf/unstable/index.html">
      GdkPixbuf</link>.</p>
      <code mime="text/python">
        from gi.repository import Gtk
        from gi.repository import GdkPixbuf
        import sys

        class MyWindow(Gtk.ApplicationWindow):
            # create a window
            def __init__(self, app):
                Gtk.Window.__init__(self, title="Welcome to GNOME", application=app)
                self.set_default_size(300, 300)

                # create a pixbuf from file filename="gnome-image.png", with width=32
                # and height=64 amd boolean preserve_aspect_ratio=False.
                pixbuf = GdkPixbuf.Pixbuf.new_from_file_at_scale("gnome-image.png", 64, 128, False)

                # create an image
                image = Gtk.Image()
                # set the content of the image as the pixbuf
                image.set_from_pixbuf(pixbuf)
                # add the image to the window
                self.add(image)
        </code>
        <p>If <code>preserve_aspect_ratio=True</code> we can use
        <code>new_from_file_at_size(filename, width, height)</code>. If
        <code>width</code> or <code>height</code> is <code>-1</code>, it is
        not constrained.</p>
        <p>For loading from an input stream, see <code>new_from_stream()</code>
        and <code>new_from_stream_at_scale()</code> in the documentation.</p>
