The purpose of this patch is to add boxes to set horiz. and vert. scaling factors to the property dialogue box for an embedded image. The change is integrated in the undo stack.

The feature has been discussed in the dev mailing list. The rationale for such a feature is to allow consistent scaling between multiple related images and/or precise scaling of idividual images.

The dlg box layout and design can certainly be improved; a (hopefully) working framework is in place, though.

Thanks,

M.

I moved the functionality of the property popup to the "inspector" panel.
The absolute numbers of scale ("100%") have no useful meaning as we dont know the output resolution. The current implementation shows the scaling relative to the screen resolution at 100% score scale.
