Frames within Frames Question

[James Monaco]

Hello Framers,

We have books with different text frames for left and right master  
pages (in order to leave more space in the gutter than on the  
outside). When you insert a graphics frame for an illustration it  
references the page, not the text frame. The result is that if the  
pagination shifts, as it often does as you insert new graphics or  
futz with the text, the graphics frames are often off-center since  
they are getting their coordinates from the page, not the text frame,  
which has moved.

Does anyone have a workaround for this?

(It seems to contradict the very principle from which Framemaker gets  
its name!)

While I'm at it, it is annoying and time-consuming to have to set run- 
around properties separately every time a graphics frame is inserted.  
Shouldn't there be a Preference for "Always Run-around Bounding Box"?

(Mac FM 7.0, I'm on digest)

Thanks!
