Looks like there was a change to the API at some stage.

If you are like me and ended up in this site looking for a quick sollution for this, the answer is:

window.nativeWindow.startMove();

Care to provide a little more detail? I'm trying this snippet and I'm getting nothing. The container I'd like to be used as the draggable area is called titlebar. Would the resulting code be:

document.titlebar.onmousedown = function() { window.htmlControl.stage.window.startMove(); }

or am I missing something? Also, where are you placing this line?
