I know you've already found a workaround, but the error message makes me 
wonder if the problem is just in the syntax; i.e., the functions are 
lacking either the parentheses or the requisite "the". In other words, 
either of these might also work:

drag from the topleft of img "wdm" to the bottomright of img "wdm"
drag from topleft(img "wdm") to bottomright(img "wdm")

I didn't exactly test this, because when I ran your sample script I 
didn't get any errors. Do you have some non-standard scripts inserted 
somewhere?
