 Description   

The current implementation of the AbstractLoad operation does not allow for overlaying images.
The attached patch would allow it, but it isn't useful until we can

  1. set the alpha component for the overlaid image
  2. position it anywhere else than 0,0

Useful feature, bump. Other use cases for image-on-image overlays:

Cool use-cases. Generating a barcode or QR code could be fun, and probably fairly easy to implement as an "operation".

Unrelated, but if you need to generate QR codes, another approach is to use an external service. Jan played with this idea a little while ago: http://svn.magnolia-cms.com/view/community/sandbox/qcode/CodeParagraphModel.java

Given the thousands of other issues we have open that are more highly requested, we won't be able to address this issue in the foreseeable future. Instead we will focus on issues with a higher impact, and more votes.
Thanks for taking the time to raise this issue. As you are no doubt aware this issue has been on our backlog for some time now with very little movement.
I'm going to close this to set expectations so the issue doesn't stay open for years with few updates. If the issue is still relevant please feel free to reopen it or create a new issue.
