Hello everyone! I am new in flash programming and i am trying to create a flash program where a rectangle is given and the user with his/her mouse can drag the edges of it .  
draging the edges the new shape must still preserve its rectangle rules.

The problem that i have and i don´t know how to solve it is that sometimes when dragging any edge, on releasing the mouse button , the edge doesn´t stop draging and this is very annoying.

I am sending you my .fla file .(some of my comments are in greek with latin characters)  
I appreciate any kind of help to solve this issue.
