Hi, Greg,

Sorry for the late reply, other life activities took priority.  LOL

Scaling did what I was looking for, and I got things more or less 
centered.  <G>

It would be nice if, in a future version of Scrbus, the ability to 
automatically center the newly scaled image vertically and horizontally 
in the frame would be convenient.  Along with next to each edge of the 
frame.
