This adds the ability to drag a sprite with a FIXED hotspot defined. It is primairily intended for dragging windows from the top (folder windows, Explorer Windows etc...). It can be changed by altering "mouseH, mouseV" and sprite.top, sprite.right etc... You cannot define an irregular (non rectangular) hotspot with this behavior. Dont' know if this works in any version other than the MX(s).
