Describe your issue

A bug was introduced in #3873 that broke how drawing behave and results in incorrect exports. I left a comment on it when it was merged originally but I think it was lost in the flow of things and still hasn't been resolved. We had been locked at v3.1.46 until we needed to update to Laravel 11 which required a newer version of this package. We discovered then that this bug still exists.

What this did pre-change was add an image to cell A1, leave the rest of the first row blank, and add footers in row 2. After that, student data was printed.

With the drawing being inserted at the end, it appears to break things pretty badly. I don't think we're doing anything we aren't supposed to be in our export logic, and so it seems to me this is an unintended change.

How can the issue be reproduced?

    }

        return Student::active();
    }

     */
    public function map($student): array
    {
        return [
            $student->Name,
            $student->Email,
            $student->Completed1 ? '✓' : '',
            $student->Completed2 ? '✓' : '',
            $student->CompletedAt,
        ];
    }

    /**
     * Create an array of fields to be included in the export.
     *
     * @return array
     */
    public function headings(): array
    {
        return [
            [
                '',
            ],
            [
                'Name',
                'Email',
                'Test 1',
                'Test 2',
                'Completion Date',
            ]
        ];
    }

    public function drawings()
    {
        $image_contents = file_get_contents($this->logo);
        $temp_image = tempnam(sys_get_temp_dir(), 'logo-');
        file_put_contents($temp_image, $image_contents);

        $drawing = new Drawing();
        $drawing->setName('Logo');
        $drawing->setDescription(__('general.logo'));
        $drawing->setPath($temp_image);
        $drawing->setHeight(90);
        $drawing->setCoordinates('A1');

        return $drawing;
    }
}

What should be the expected behaviour?

Pre v3.1.47, the drawing properly sits above the rest of the spreadsheet data.

I somehow accidentally closed this issue despite it not being fixed. I have no idea how/why I did that!
