Replacing a scaled Picture Frame image wasn't maintaining placement

No, unfortunately it's not fixed.
Left: first the frame was created, then the image placed via place tool –> causes a shift on replace (see magenta frame fill).
Right: first the image was placed (dto.) then converted to picture frame –> causes a massive shift off the page on replace (same occurrence in v191 beta & retail)

Convert to Picture Frame does not use default saved settings, cf Convert to Text Frame

Still not working for convert, for tool partially only:
• A frame's custom saved default stroke gets applied but a custom saved fill does not – regardless of the way of new frame creation (tool or convert) or of a previously used frame fill.
• The custom saved default properties No Scale + No Anchor aren't respected if the frame is created via convert. Instead still the factory defaults get applied (fit max + center).
• For both ways of frame creation a custom default fill may get achieved with an additional use of the button "Revert Defaults" (whereas with factory defaults the fill gets applied during frame creation).

And: still missing a certain selected layout resource when opening the Resource Manager – instead of a selected folder, which makes it more cumbersome to detect the selected single item). Plus various UI issues in this window.

 Please can you try the latest beta 1.9.2.1009 which has a proposed solution to this problem
