Slava,
I must admit I don't quite understand the question. I am frequently
building bitmap members with imaging Lingo, and the width property is
always (?) reported right. How do you make it _not_ update correctly?
Or are you editing the images _outside_ of director after linking
them in? If so, the only thing I can think of to make director aware
of their new sizes would be to use Binary IO to read the size of the
image without loading it and then set the member rect to the image's
w & h, although this might be harder work than actually reloading the
images or casts.
