OK, I'm now confused. If you want an image to fill a canvas then you don't really need to center it (unless there's going to be distortion from aspect ratio changing). And, if you fill the Canvas, I'd think you'd just use the backgroundImage instead. Can you provide more details on the scenario? -Alex
