We generally don't have ways to constrain the mouse position. Instead, the "can't drop here" cursor shows up except over the droptarget.

Not sure how, but that's a place to explore... thanks. looking at SystemManager all i can see is getSWFRoot() method. using that to get a DisplayObject for the drag proxy & mask that "works" except it masks everything else in the app out & still can't drop the dragged image. i think i probably still have some kind of misconception on how this should work. though it seems like doDrag() needs a clip/mask parameter.
