Yeah, there are better ways to do that, somewhat. The problem with the
proposed solution is that it relies on non-public APIs, which are can be
subject to change without deprecation. Instead, I would have created the
figimage object with a particular transform object that would have placed
it at the appropriate data points. Perhaps someone else on this list knows
of the correct way to do that?
