I don't think it would help. I think you probably need to do  
something like figure out what the relative positions of the graphics  
are, ungroup them, scale/transform them, then position them as you  
like and regroup them. The ungrouping/regrouping might be  
unnecessary, but I'd want to test it.

I think you'd have to write the code as described above. HOOT could  
help you to create the code in a way that could be applied to any  
number of groups with enclosed graphics, though.

Not sure -- I'm not the graphic wizard on this list. Someone else  
might jump in with an answer.
