Image on mask in Simulink

Hi everyone

I'm trying to add an image as part of a mask in Simulink. I can add the image, no problem.

However, the image blocks out my port labels. Is there anyway I can display the image and show the port labels? Is maybe there a way one can shrink the image on the mask?

Any ideas?

Setting the "Icon Transparency" to "Transparent" should show the port labels underneath. Alternately, you could use the port_label function to draw port labels to overlay them over the image.

Thank you for the quick response Kaustubha. The "transparent" trick worked.

A further question, is it possible to crop the image on the mask, so that it only display in the centre?

I've tried the method mentioned in this example (http://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/fileexchange/3484-cropping-images-on-simulink-blocks) to no avail.

Thanking you in kindness
