Hi Alexey,

Inserting images isn't currently possible. In this case the documentation is ahead of the implementation.

You may already know xlsxwriter.lua is a port of the Perl Excel::Writer::XLSX and the Python XlsxWriter modules which are more or less feature equivalent.

The plan is to port/implement features in the order that they were implemented for the Python module: see the Changes file and read from the bottom up.

However, I can't promise any time frame due to other work/commitments.

In the meantime if you need some of these other features I would recommend the Python version of the module.
