            Stream stream = new FileStream("image.png", FileMode.Open);

            //Add image
            IPictureShape picture = worksheet.Pictures.AddPicture(1, 1, svgStream, stream, 50, 50);

            //Check
            Console.Write(picture.FileName);

            //Save and dispose

Methods

Remove(Boolean)

Removes shape from the collection.

Declaration
void Remove(bool removeImage)
Parameters
Type Name Description
System.Boolean removeImage

Removes image that is referenced by this shape from collection too, if we didn't detect image usage. XlsIO doesn't detect this situation correctly in all cases if there are shapes in charts in Excel 2007 or if some image shapes are grouped in any excel version. If you are not sure whether image is referenced in charts or grouped shapes and you are working with Excel 2007 version, set this argument to true (this could cause file size increase, but will keep document in the correct state).
Examples

The following code illustrates how to remove a IPictureShape from IPictures collection.

        using (ExcelEngine excelEngine = new ExcelEngine())
        {
            //Create worksheet
            IApplication application = excelEngine.Excel;
            application.DefaultVersion = ExcelVersion.Excel2013;
            IWorkbook workbook = application.Workbooks.Create(1);
            IWorksheet worksheet = workbook.Worksheets[0];

            //Add images
            IPictureShape picture = worksheet.Pictures.AddPicture(1, 1, "image.png");
            IPictureShape picture2 = worksheet.Pictures.AddPicture(1, 15, "image.png");

            //Remove image
            picture.Remove(true);

            //Save and dispose
            workbook.SaveAs("Shapes.xlsx");
            workbook.Close();
        }
