jquery draggable, making a div not to go outside of the other div frame

Question

i need a draggable div not to go outside of second div frame, so far i managed to make a "collision" basically returning true or false if draggable div is inside the frame of other div. So the thing now is that i cant get this to work, i was trying to get it to ax = 90(example) when it hits the frame and few more examples , but i just can't get this to work. The draggable div doesn't want to go back to position.

Here is a JSFiddle: https://jsfiddle.net/kojaa/x80wL1mj/2/

    let catcherOffset = $(catcher).offset();
    let CxPos = catcherOffset.left;
    let CyPos = catcherOffset.top;

    let catcherYInMovableArea, catcherXInMovableArea = true;

    while(!isCatcherYinMovableArea(CyPos)){
        catcherYInMovableArea = false;

        return false;
    } else {
        return true;
    }

function isCatcherXinMovableArea(xpos){
    if(xpos < 8 || xpos > 1655 ) {
        return false;
    } else {
        return true;
    }
}

By default, the collision option will prevent the element from being placed outside of the window . You want to prevent it from moving outside of a specific element.

To do this, use the within option to select which element should be used for containment.

Example:

 let draggable = $("#draggable"); $(document).mousemove(function(e) { draggable.position({ my: "left-50% bottom+50%", of: e, collision: "fit", within: "#container" }); });

 #container { width: 200px; height: 100px; border-style: solid } #draggable { width: 50px; height: 50px; background-color: black }

 <script src="https://code.jquery.com/jquery-3.3.1.js"></script> <script src="https://code.jquery.com/ui/1.12.0-rc.1/jquery-ui.js"></script> <div id="container"> <div id="draggable"></div> </div>
