Pixbuf.newFromResource

Creates a new pixbuf by loading an image from an resource.

The file format is detected automatically.

The image will be scaled to fit in the requested size, optionally preserving the image's aspect ratio. When preserving the aspect ratio, a width of -1 will cause the image to be scaled to the exact given height, and a height of -1 will cause the image to be scaled to the exact given width. When not preserving aspect ratio, a width or height of -1 means to not scale the image at all in that dimension.

The stream is not closed.

resourcePath string

the path of the resource file

width int

The width the image should have or -1 to not constrain the width
