Richmond, this gave me the horrible case of the jitters. The image would shift positions as I dragged it. I tried locking and unlocking the screen before and after the sizing and positioning of the image, but apparently when the user is interacting with the IDE, the screen is going to unlock

Hi, if you want to move and scale at the same time, changing the rectangle property is your friend. You will want to do this in a send in time structure and calculate where the the corner points of your control need to be at the given time. You will want to lock screen before you set the
