Remarks

If SizeHeight and SizeHeight are both set to (auto) the size of the image layer will be that of the image.
If one of the two dimensions is defined, the dimension set to (auto) will be adjusted to preserve the image's aspect ratio.
Finally, if both dimensions are defined, the image's aspect ratio will be altered according to those dimensions.

See the image specifications.

Another way to include an image is to use an image component.

The Rotation property is not applied during design.
