member().filename supports a trimwhitespace parameter (see below)
try
newMember = new(#bitmap)
newMember.importFileInto("1587330.apple",[#dither: 0, #trimWhiteSpace: 0])
& FYI:
there's a bitmap property called:
member().centerRegPoint which can be set.
in this case though, it shouldn't be necessary.

try
newMember = new(#bitmap)
newMember.importFileInto("1587330.apple",[#dither: 0, #trimWhiteSpace: 0])
& then
newMember.centerRegPoint = 1
