Example (Simple)

-- Add an image
myimage1 = img_add_fullscreen("myimage1.png")

-- Move image1 to x,y = 100,100, width=200, height=250
move(myimage1, 100, 100, 200, 250 )

-- Move image1 to x=200
-- Note that using 'nil' will ignore that parameter (last value will be preserved)
move(myimage1, 200, nil, nil, nil )

Example (Animation)

-- Add an image
myimage1 = img_add_fullscreen("myimage1.png")

-- Enable animation
move(myimage1, nil, nil, nil, nil, "LOG", 0.04)

-- Any move done at this point will be animated
move(myimage1, 0, 0, 256, 256)
