I don't think that will make the image forget its original size forever, 
but only while the lockLoc is true. I was looking for a new starting point 
from which I could then issue a shape change and lockLoc **that**.

Also, I am struggling to demonstrate the anomalous group behaviour I was 
trying to describe, but I haven't quite got the recipe yet. It's something 
to do with grouping images and graphics together, and then setting the 
lockLoc of the images (you can't set the lockLoc of a graphic AFAIK). Then 
when you edit the group, the lockLoc seems to be ignored. I will try to 
clarify this and if I do I'll get back to the list about it. This was not 
academic for me as it actually affected a small animation in something I 
was developing.
