Does this help? # If an object (such as an icon) has multiple sizes, then the largest size (by area) is taken as its intrinsic size. If it has multiple aspect ratios at that size, or has multiple aspect ratios and no size, then the aspect ratio closest to the aspect ratio of the <i>default object size</i>is used. Determine this by seeing which aspect ratio produces the largest area when fitting it within the <i>default object size</i> using a <i>contain</i> fit; if multiple sizes tie for the largest area, the wider size is chosen as its intrinsic size. > And > shouldn't it be *maximizing* the area, or have I still not decrypted it > correctly? Yes, it should be. Fixed in the above text. ~TJ
