The thing to do is to reset the css position and display propreties whenever you remove the layer. big2.addChild(lyr1); big2.addChild(lyr2); big2.addChild(lyr3); big1.addChild(lyr3); lyr1.css.display = 'inline'; lyr1.css.position = 'relative'; DragEvent.setDragBoundary(lyr1); lyr2.css.display = 'inline'; lyr2.css.position = 'relative'; DragEvent.setDragBoundary(lyr2); lyr3.css.display = 'inline'; lyr3.css.position = 'relative'; DragEvent.setDragBoundary(lyr3); This might however affect the DragBoundary as the layers are displayed inline with position set to relative. IMO it's best to use a reflow system to re-align your layers inside there parent. I do hope someone will one day be able to create such a library.
