default setting for Lock Aspect Ratio

S

I need to set the default/startup setting for a picture's lock aspect ratio
to ON (checked). I can manually set it to on but the Apply Settings to new
Objects box is greyed out so I can't save it as the default setting. I want
all my photos to stay in proportion and now I have to fix every one as I use
it. I have another machine where it is defaulted to On.

Only with autoshapes is the "lock aspect ratio" not on by default, with pictures it
is. Might copy and paste your autoshape as a wmf. Do a "detect and repair" if the
aspect is not on by default when formatting pictures.
I suspect the reason the "Apply settings to new objects" is dimmed is because the
dialogue appears on the Colors and Lines page not on the picture page.
