I don't think I understand what the problem you having is. Are you
saying the not visible areas of your app are draggable? Because I have
apps that have differing shapes and sizes whose windows active area is
confined only to what is visible...

Can you explain your problem a bit more?

Hi Matthew,

Thanks for the answers; like i said:

The problem that i dont want is that when my app unfolds, my
'appllication canvas' is actully bigger that what the user sees. When
you dragg the app i want the draggeble area to be confined to the size
of the current state of my application). When your current state is
smaller than your canvas, you still see the border.

For instance when you look at the EmployeeDirectory app, on
http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/air/samples/ and when it folds open
the 'canvas' is also stretched, and when you drag it, the borrder is
only confined to the current state of the app.

Can you tell me how this can be realized?

Cheers, Sidney
