in an app, i need to create a drag image for some text. I create the image, then i need to create the region for that text so only the text is dragged, not the whole background. Just like OSX drags text. How can i create the drag region so only the text is dragged and not the background?

If you're using CoreGraphics, you can create a bitmap context, fill it with transparency, then draw your text and create a CGImage from your context. This way you don't have to fiddle with regions. There might be other techniques using Quickdraw.
