This is specified through the options of the graphics object itself. The ImageMargins option determines where the bounding box will be placed physically within a cell. > Now graphics do not appear.

Options which are set explicitly for a given scope will have a bullet next to them when the scope indicator is set at that scope level. If you have a selection for which you want to view all options that are set explicitly, then set the scope indicator to "selection" and set the view-by indicator to "as text". > By the way, what's the difference between the Options Inspector and > Preferences? They seem to do the same thing. I answered this question the last time you posted it to this forum.
