I am trying to position an image with rounded corners to a specific position on screen. However, according to the following post, yshift and xshift do not affect nodes that are named and I am still a bit confused on how to use the ++ and if this is the best approach.



Take my current situation:



documentclassarticle
usepackage[utf8]inputenc
usepackagegraphicx
usepackagetikz
usepackage[a4paper,top=3cm, bottom=3cm, left=2cm, right=2cm]geometry

begindocument

begintikzpicture
beginscope
clip [rounded corners=0.7cm] (0,0) rectangle coordinate (centerpoint) (4,4.0cm);
node [inner sep=0pt] at (centerpoint) includegraphics[width=4.0cm]dogesmall.jpg;

draw[line width=0.08cm,rounded corners=0.7cm] (0,0) rectangle (4,4.0cm);
endscope
endtikzpicture

enddocument


(Where "dogesmall.jpg" is my current image)



This produces a result that places the image in the upper left hand corner, as defined by the margins. However, I would like to tweak the position of the tikzpicture without changing the margins like so:



                                            
Babou



How would I go about accomplishing such a task?



I tried following this post by using the following:



newcommandsetcoordinates
coordinate (centerpoint) at (4,4.0cm);



And then referencing this coordinate by coordinate (centerpoint) and then applying a shift transformation, but that does not work either. Any thoughts?
