It seemed strange to me as well, but now I've found it very useful and prefer it. Obviously its very convenient for centering shapes, which seems to be a frequent requirement for me.

OK.  That's what I expected.  Thanks for the tips.

BTW: Why is it the done thing to have your coordinates based round a centre-point and not a corner? It seems very odd to be doing this. It would be simpler for my purposes to fit everything to a corner.

Cheers.

You will have to loop the objects to get the bbox, then also adjust the center of the group. Then scaling is so easy. I have it working with CAD drawings really nicely. Live resizing the window from thumbnail to full
screen is smooth and clean as a whistle.
