by all SCUserView based objects are broken I mean drag out support is
broken for SCUserView based objects.
As James states, the relativeOrigin_(false) patch in Knob is temporary
(only while stired waters settle down =) then the code will be made
to the new model which may me more appropriate.
anyways, got the fix for the drag methods; do I commit this?
Captn. Dan? Mr. Click?
its some lines that were probably left out by mistake while the mods took place.
