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

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

I have changed the function and now it works with any sized layer, and
all layers can be of different sizes!
Check it out!

It's not a problem to add this to the API.  However, it seems to be a
hack'ish way of working around the API's parent-child relationship.
I added a property called "container" to all small squares, which is
used to decide what layers need to be re-positioned when looping over
all layers under dynapi.document.

I did all this for the sake of being able to drag the squares outside of
its parent.  So, basically the API doesn't know the squares are
contained in the big box.  All boxes and squares are at the same
hierarchy level.
