Changing MouseEvent.MOUSE_DOWN to MouseEvent.MOUSE_MOVE solved it. Thanx! Run into the same problem.

When you use mouseMove there is an <strong>event property</strong> called <strong>buttonDown</strong> which you can ask instead of implementing mouseUp and -Down and having a boolean flag for that.

Furthermore, the 'imageclass' is a renderer, which can be changed by the user, my code should never interfere with user code.

Basically you would create a new MouseEvent, copy all the parameters of the MouseDown event and use Click as the type. Then since the item is a IEventDispatcher, you just tell it to dispatch the event prior to the drag. Just thinking out load but I did do something like this in the dNdLib - http://code.google.com/p/flex-drag-n-drop-lib/ I needed to replicate mouseEvents and did so pretty easily. Hope that helps.
