Re: [Dynapi-Help] Can a layer be display:inline and position:relative, while still draggable?

[Jack C. <jac...@ne...>]

Just realized something, if the first time I use setDragBoundary on a
layer and I do not provide the 4 dimension parameters, then I won't be
able to change the boundary later on.
However, if I give the dimension paramters the first time I call
setDragBoundary, i can always change the boundary by calling it again
with different parameters.
But now I need to menually calculate the parameters for each layer,
since it is relative to the layers, not to the screen. (or is there a
way to set boundary relative to whole page??)
