Re: make lock aspect ratio the default on images Word 2007

The "secret" is in how the file was spec'd when created - it isn't Word's
choice & I'm afraid the default can't be changed. I would think that a macro
could be run to apply the setting each time you insert an image, but unless
there are other actions to have taken consistently it's just as convenient
to check the setting & change it yourself if necessary.

Hi
I am using the Office 2007 beta and have found that when I insert an image
into Word that its aspect ratio is not locked. so when i go to resize the
image simply by double clicking to produce the Size group on the Format -
Picture tab and entering a new value, the image resizes but becomes
distorted. I then have to undo what i did, select the "more" button in the
group and select the Keep Aspect Ratio option before i can resize the
picture.
i have also found that this is inconsistent with images. many of the ones
i
insert are from file and in a .wmf format. some of them keep the aspect
ratio
and others do not. clipart seems to work fine.
what is the secret? i can't find a place to make this the default.
thanks for your help.
