Default Anchored frame positioning

[Art Campbell]

Fred,

I'm not sure which version of ImpGraph you're running, the padding or
margin is one of the property settings that you specify. It's not
locked at 6 pt as you imply in your message.

Or you can specify the dimensions for the frame and size the graphic to fit.

(I've been using this command for so long that those three keystrokes are completely automatic for me whenever I insert a graphic.) This command, which was originally designed for inline mathematical equations (the "mp" mnemonic stands for "math, package"), does exactly what you seek, plus it reduces the padding between the graphic and the graphic from 6 pts on all sides to 1 pt on all sides.

Many Frame users have installed a free 3rd party plugin called ShrinkWrapAsIs.dll, which changes the padding *without* changing the position property. If you have that DLL in the fminit\Plugins folder of your FrameMaker installation, simply move it to another file to restore the standard shrinkwrap command.
