Look in the engine change log in the 2.9 release folder. It says:

is within
~~~~~~~~~
   Previously, the "is within" operation would include bottom and right 
edges of the rectangle in the test. This is inconsitent with all other 
areas where rectangles are used in Revolution where the bottom and right 
edges are not included. The previous functionality is also inconsistent 
with the HyperCard implementation. Therefore, the functionality has been 
changed.
