Well... my english isn't so goog, but let's try to explain better :-) Imagine a black background (sprite) and over it a big image that goes out of the stage because it's size. I want to drag it to see all of it, but when the edges of the bigger image begins visible it stops so that the user can't see the black behind it. The same effect that we can apply to a smaller image confined to another bigger, but in tis case only to limit the larger image to pass the limits of the smaller ( that is the borders os interface).
