Thanks so much Juan! I documented how to use this in my ever expanding
Smalltalk blog pages. See
https://mvolkmann.github.io/blog/topics/#/blog/smalltalk/30-development-environment/
and click the table of contents link "Background Image". I'm still hoping
to convert all these blog pages on Smalltalk into a book at some point.
