I'd do something like (in pseudocode)

for x = initial position to x + width of icon
for y = initial position to y + height of icon

main image = main image + icon image

end for
end for

If the icon is monochromatic, then just use an if statement to only plot to the main image if the icon's pixel colour is the foreground colour.

If the icon is not monochromatic, but has an odd outline, do the same thing but for the background colour.

You could also use plotblend to blend the icon and the main image.

Hope that helps.

Sometimes you want to highlight "resaltar" certain points by adding an icon rather than a basic sign like +

So in practice, e.g. I have a PNG icon that is 10x10 pixels and I want to display it centered in point 50,60 of a 200x200 image

I'm not sure I understand you.

What exactly do you mean by hilight? Place an external PNG image at
an x,y position that satisfies certain conditions?
