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.
