Thanks Jacque, I would never have guessed this was the issue - I can now 
continue with my development without my images jumping around the card! BTW 
the action does not take place precisely as you describe, or indeed as the 
TD describes: it seems that the action of opening **any** group for editing 
on the card and then stopping the edit is equivalent to opening the card 
(since the images that I saw displaced were not themselves part of any 
group, nor did I move from card to card when I saw the displacement); also 
the 'native dimensions' seems in my case to be some kind of trace memory of 
a time when the two images were grouped, although during the experiment 
they were not grouped any more. There is something mysterious here which is 
probably an engine bug, but right now I don't think it's worth burdening 
the Bugzilla list with something so obscure.

Thanks again

Graham
