Subject: Scaling image with FXRuby

Hy,

I try to scale an image in FXRuby. First I create the image with

  icon = FXPNGIcon.new( getApp(), "image.png" )
  icon.create

and then I do this

  icon.scale( 100, 100 )
  dc.drawIcon(icon, 0, 0)

This should draw the scaled icon on the specified DeviceContext,
however, the result is distorted.

What I try to accomplish:
- First load the png picture with transparent background
- Scale the picture depending on the current window size
- Draw the scaled image

Is there method like drawIcon( icon, x, y, width, height) available?
This would simply everything!

If not: Can anyone advise me on how to do this? I could not find a
solution...

Thomas
