Esc m p for anchored frames?

Tammy -- this behaviour was scripted for equations created using
FrameMath.  
We just get the bonus of having it work for other anchored frames. <g>
AFAIK, there is no way to change this default behaviour. 
The workaround is to type Esc-s-a after Esc-m-p and choose the setting
you want.
With something like FrameScript or AutoIT
(http://www.autoitscript.com/autoit3/), you could probably combine this
set into a single function key.

Subject: Esc m p for anchored frames?

Ok,

I have tried searching the archives for this, but the searchable
messages don't go back far enough in time. I distinctly remember a
discussion about what the m and p represented in the Esc m p command for
anchored frames. 
Fred Ridder also supplied a succinct description of why this functions
the way that it does - basically, when I place my anchored frame at a
certain location, then use Esc m p, the frame is shrunk to the size of
the graphic, but the whole frame with the graphic is shifted upwards -
it does not remain in its original location - if this description makes
sense. 

Any information on this subject is appreciated.
