margins ignored in formattedHeight for 8?

[J. Landman Gay]

Interesting...I'm working with formattedheight today too. I have a field 
placed under an image where it can't be seen. It slides down sometimes 
and moves everything below it down to accomodate. When I get the 
formattedheight of the group the controls are in, it returns the same 
number regardless of whether the field is under the image or below it.

Something's odd. LC 8.1.1.
