Research direction

Review how OCP 7.5 handles optional image dependencies and where Image_AlienPixMap::Load is exposed; check the build configuration and binding entry points. Confirm the required FreeImage integration and verify that CQ-editor's viewer can import an image for sketching.

Description

Is it possible to include Image_AlienPixMap::Load in the OCP build? The reason I ask is that it would be nice to be able to import images in CQ-editor's viewer and then sketch on top of them. It looks to me that the only available OCCT method to do so is Image_AlienPixMap ::Load. I believe this also requires FreeImage, which looks like it was removed around the OCP 7.5 release.
