Jacque,

I moved this tangent to a new thread. See thread "clipsToRect property (was Re: 
Instantiaing Grouped Controls - Templates - Responsive)”.

FWIW I had the same reaction to “crop”.

This also correlates well with the word "clips" in the property name itself.  
i.e. zero ambiquity

I agree with the concept in general, but the word "crop" implies permanent 
removal. When you crop an image, it permanently erases the parts outside the 
rectangle. Unfortunately I can't think of a better term. Maybe something like 
"prevent auto-resizing"?
