Okay, I'm now eating my hat. I checked InDesign and... tada, I can press up/down cursors when I'm in the measurements fields and the image does indeed move. But. Why would anyone do it like that? If I'm looking at a photo of a girl I want to move the image so her hair is just the 'right' distance from the top of the page. How will I know? I'll just know. And I'll be looking at the image when I know, not the palette. Humble pie for pudding?
