Scale handles inside a clipping group/scroller

[Handycam]

I have an image which is loaded in a component. I have a transform manager around this image.

 

The main app has an area the image is clipped to. I was thinking of allowing the users to use the TM to resize and move the image within this clip box but, of course, the handles are also clipped:

 

Any suggestions?

When you say "component" does that mean you're working in Flex?

 

You should be able to turn off the clipping in your component and just apply a mask manually to your DisplayObject that's getting transformed. That way, the mask won't affect the selection handles/box/edges.
