Patch  1.02
Description
This is an example demonstrating how a UI with concealable parts (ie: resizable screens, collapsable elements, etc) can be repositioned while preventing non-visible elements from blocking the playing area.

nice work. I just got a dvd drive (that will hopefully run NWN2) So I'll be back to work on my UI soon : )

Update: I fixed the last two toggle buttons (OnRightClick and OnLeftDoubleClick). Both work now. The OnLeftClick toggle button is now draggable. I made a few visual enhancements.

"What else does this mod change? aside from the fact that it prevents mouse clicks from being blocked?"

If you've tried UImproved (by ibjodaddy&Slate) you may have noticed the draggable Partybar and Quickcast screens have overly large drag areas. A significant region below these screens block the playing field ... ie: clicking below the quickcast screen initiates 'dragging' rather than, say, causing your PC to run/walk that position in the playing area.

This is a stab at resolving that issue. As you can see, it works ... for custom UIs (created from scratch). It will take an update by OEI for my solution to work for the default screens such as the PartyBar, Messagebox (chat), and Quickcast screens.

... cross your fingers for the next patch ...
