Wow! My memory must really be going. I thought I remembered posting a topic about two weeks ago that was in reference to clipping paths and having an image's bounding box be tightened-up to fit the clipping path. 

I discussed how this used to be done in InDesign 1.5, which was to turn the option on in the Place options dialog, and have it remain in the "sticky" state. 

First things first: is there a new way to do this in ID2? 

Second things second: I need to find a way to do this in both AppleScript and VB. "Bi-lingual" suggestions would be most appreciated, and even more appreciated would be if someone were to find my original post on this matter so we can all save ourselves some typing and chin-scratching ;-) 

Thanks!
