Thank you so much Alexandre for your response. You are absolutely right, it is working now as it should. But I have one more question. Is there a way to resize it from all four corners, I don't need to keep the aspect ratio. I would like to resize the box like a cropping tool( <a href="http://odyniec.net/projects/imgareaselect/">http://odyniec.net/projects/imgareaselect/</a> ). I am also having another problem. When I assign {displayClass: "olControlDrawFeaturePoint"} to modifyFeature, it doesn't give strictly horizontally aligned rectangles. I can draw rectangles in that case but they form an angle.<br>
<br>I'd really appreciate any of your help.<br><br>Thanks,<br>Moiz<br><div class="gmail_quote">On Wed, Sep 15, 2010 at 7:24 AM, Alexandre Dube <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:adube@mapgears.com">adube@mapgears.com</a>></span> wrote:<br>

Hi Moiz,<br>
<br>
The constructor of the control only takes 2 parameters [1] and you
give it 3. This might be why it doesn't work.<br>
<br>

I am using vector (polygon) layer with draw feature and modify feature.
Let me explain first what I am trying to achieve. I want to draw
rectangles(strict horizontally aligned) and after drawing it might
require a little bit of modification but again it shouldn't lose its
shape. <br>
<br>
Here is what I tried doing:<br>
<br>
polygonLayer = new OpenLayers.Layer.Vector("Capture Region",
{displayInLayerSwitcher: true, reproject: true});<br>
polyOptions = {sides: 4, snapAngle: 180, irregular: true}; //To
draw only rectangles<br>
var pan = new OpenLayers.Control.Navigation({title: "Navigate"})<br>
polygonControl = new
OpenLayers.Control.DrawFeature(polygonLayer,
OpenLayers.Handler.RegularPolygon, <br>
{handlerOptions: polyOptions});<br>
modify = new OpenLayers.Control.ModifyFeature(<br>
polygonLayer, {displayClass: "olControlModifyFeature",
title: "Modify Features"}, <br>
{mode: ~OpenLayers.Control.ModifyFeature.RESHAPE |
OpenLayers.Control.ModifyFeature.RESIZE <br>
| OpenLayers.Control.ModifyFeature.DRAG }<br>
);<br>
var panel = new OpenLayers.Control.Panel({<br>
displayClass: "olControlEditingToolbar"<br>
});<br>
panel.addControls([pan, polygonControl, modify]);<br>
map.addControl(panel);<br>
<br>
The problem is it doesn't follow the modify feature modes I have
defined. It allows reshaping and doesn't allow dragging and resizing.
Another problem I have is when I define the displayClass for draw
feature, it wouldn't let me draw rectangles that are horizontally
aligned. To point your attention towards where I might be making a
mistake, I am using OpenLayers.Handler.RegularPolygon to draw feature.
Is that a problem?<br>
<br>
Thanks a lot for taking time to read my problem and I'd really
appreciate if you could help me with any suggestions and ideas.<br>
<br>
Thanks!<br>
Moiz<br>
