Hello Charlie, the "Render in Image"-Patch has input parameters for this: "Pixels Wide" and "Pixels Heigh". both are "0" by default which means: use the output view dimensions. You can use a "Image Dimension" patch to get pixel dimensions of your images and feed those parameters into the "Pixels Wide" and "Pixels Heigh" parameter of the "Render in Image" patch.
Keep in mind that "Render in Image" cost graphical performance. If you just want "positioning of sprites" on a plane and rotate this plane in 3D space, it is much faster to use a "3D Transformation" patch containing your sprite renderes.
