image scaling in WikiText->Docbook [message #526236]

Hello,
I've just started using WikiText for writing developer documentation - can I just say it's really excellent, it's great to be able to have nicely formatted docs inside a project rather than on a separate wiki. And nice Help documentation on how to use WikiText as well!

However I'm a bit stuck on the image scaling to Docbook from Textile, using Eclipse 3.5.2, Cocoa 32bit version.
If I add the line !{width=80%}Picture1.png! as suggested this does not seem to get included in the generated DocBook, which appears like so

<mediaobject>
 <imageobject>
	<imagedata fileref="Picture1.png"/>
  </imageobject>
</mediaobject>

Is the markup wrong or is this a known bug? Is it only supported for certain image formats?
Thanks for your help
Richard

The documentation is incorrect, it should suggest !{width:80%}images/foo.png! (notice the colon instead of the equals
sign) Try this instead !{width:80%}Picture1.png!

I've created the following bug to track this issue:
