There are several ways to show images or graphics in a Diagram or in the cell of a edit table:

You can copy an image from another application, such as a web page or photo, into a Diagram. If you click the background, and select Paste from the Edit menu or press ctrl+v, it creates a Picture object containing the image. If you select a variable or other node before pasting, it inserts the image into the node as its Pict attribute. You can resize the image within the node by dragging its corner boxes.
You can also copy an image into a cell of an edit table. You can resize the image in a cell by dragging the border below or to the right of the cell to change the cell size.
You can generate a graphic with Analytica code using the Canvas functions. You can show the resulting graphic in a node as its Pict attribute, or show it in a table cell.
