aspect ratios, i.e. you are trying to display a landscape image in a

it should: it takes the width of the image and scales it to fit the
width of the control. It scales the height of the image accordingly,
centres the scaled image and paints the "empty" space white.

EXACT (larger picture fit in, small picture enlarge)
strech in my opinions means ignore aspect ratio.
maybe shoud be a diferent property like
strech (true, false)
and
ignore_aspect_ratio (true, false)
