object size and position options doesn't work as expected for grouped objects
Currently if you use the size and position options in the object styles panel, it applies the x,y position to all objects individually in a group rather than to the group itself.
Anchored objects currently handle grouped objects in the correct way. This feels like a bug/oversight.
Would expect a group of objects to behave as 1 rather than being each item being treated individually within a group

Yes, Please fix this- if I have a group of three items, BOTH the Size and Position settings will apply to each object IN the group, instead of the entire group as a whole, which is NEVER what I want to have happen. in the example, I have a logo, which is four parts, pasted from IL (yes, I usually would PLACE the logo from IL) but If I need to color it differently, I like to be able to copy and paste from IL sometimes. It is a group. The first pic is the group, and the second pic is the group with an Object Style, with Size and Position options applied. I want to be able to color and place the logo in the correct spot with an Object Style. It's impossible. There is NO situation that I would want all items in a group to move or resize in this manner.
