Awesome! Will you be willing to contribute layer rearranging code to the API? If so could we call it the ReflowManager or the AlignmentManager or some other? example of its use: var a = new AlignmentManager(); var lyr = new DynLayer(); lyr.addChild(a); //^ this will align all the child layers inside lyr If you can get it to work with even rectangles then that would be cool. -- Raymond Irving > -- > Jack Chung <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > http://www.PerceptiveCorner.com/ > > > On Tue, 8 Jul 2003 20:29:34 -0700 (PDT) > Raymond Irving <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > > > --- Jack Chung <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > Is it true that a layer cannot be dragged > outside of > > > its parent? > > > > Yes.
