Thanks Ole, I'm making sure I apply it to the actual images as well, that was a mistake I was making at first.

Two things are wrong with this theory. First, the object library says that the Absolute property gives a relative scaling percentage (?!). Next, I've never been able to get them to vary. > > Given the theory, however, I'd go with AbsoluteHorizontalScale.
