paint method

void paint (Canvas canvas, Rect rect, Path clipPath, ImageConfiguration configuration)

Draw the image onto the given canvas.

The image is drawn at the position and size given by the rect argument.

The image is clipped to the given clipPath, if any.

The configuration object is used to resolve the image (e.g. to pick resolution-specific assets), and to implement the DecorationImage.matchTextDirection feature.

If the image needs to be painted again, e.g. because it is animated or because it had not yet been loaded the first time this method was called, then the onChanged callback passed to DecorationImage.createPainter will be called.

      // when the image is ready.
