See the screenshot below:



The small icons you can see actually belong to the vehicle below the one where they appear, because I've used offsets to position the image as I want it for positioning in game. Obviously it would be nice to have them in the correct place - could we define a separate offset in dat files for use only in the depots?

Must be a seperate line in the dat. If you go that far, maybe a special depot image is the best solution.

That would be very useful! One could then "normalize" the pictures a bit, whether ships, planes, trucks ...

That would be fine for me too - presumably defaulting to current behaviour if none defined?

Separate offset for images in depot are very usefull.

The "build a factory / building"  dialog would also benefit from improvements in how "preview" images are displayed, particularly in that they do not respect offsets and multiple frontimage/backimages.
