I was looking in the docs about displaying an image in a ui.graphics_card and didn't find a good example. I've been able to display a png file in an image_card but I'd like to get it in a ui.graphics_card to use as part of a scene. Is this possible?

Description

Add new image (for base64) and path for regular image URLs to the existing graphics_card. If any of those 2 attributes is specified, render the image as a card background. Graphics drawing should happen "on top of the image".
