So you have simply selected a different base point, to which the Position X 
and Y values in the fields to the left of the diagram apply. You have not 
said that you have actually changed any X or Y values. What exactly are you 
expecting to change?

Are you saying you expected the position of your object to change? Or do you 
simply want the "Position and Size" dialog to remember which base point you 
have previously selected?

If you mean remembering the base point you just selected, then OOo 2.0.3 
does not remember either. Might be worth an enhancement request, if there is 
not already one there. In my use, it would be more convenient if the center 
point was selected.
