Hi,
I sent the code and a short explanation to OpenLayers dev and users...
I didn't see your code yet... But I promise that I will.
Thanks for sharing ;)
Here is the mail, that I sent:
I have done controls and handlers to handle events in features that are in different layers (with OpenLayers controls you only can handle events in a single layer, and that layer must be on the top), and as I received on mail requests to share my code, I decided to send it for the list. With an explanation how it works.
Actually I made two controls, FeatureEventHandlerControl and DragFeatureControl and an handler (FeatureHandler) to help the FeatureEventHandlerControl.
This two controls works pretty like the SelectFeature and DragFeature OpenLayers controls, but they work cross layers. They don't care about the layers. When you want to get an event from a feature, you must register that feature on the control, and when that event occurres you will be notified.
For example:
/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
Var dragControl = new Sapo.Control.DragFeatureControl([], {
'dragstart': { callback: function(feacture, pixel){/*do something*/} context: this}
'drag': { callback: function(feacture, pixel){/*do something*/} context: this} 'dragend': { callback: function(feacture, pixel){/*do something*/} context: this}
}
);
Var featureEvtHandler = new Sapo.Control.FeatureEventHandlers([], {
'click': { callback: function(feacture, pixel){/*do something*/} context: this}
'mouseover': { callback: function(feacture, pixel){/*do something*/} context: this}
'mouseout': { callback: function(feacture, pixel){/*do something*/} context: this}
}
);
Map.addControl(dragControl);
Map.addControl(featureEvtHandler);
dragControl.activate();
featureEvtHandler.activate();
Var layer1 = new OpenLayers.Layer.Vector("Markers",
{
projection: new OpenLayers.Projection("EPSG:4326"),
styleMap: new OpenLayers.StyleMap({
externalGraphic: "http://openlayers.org/dev/img/marker-gold.png",
backgroundGraphic: "http://openlayers.org/dev/examples/marker_shadow.png",
graphicYOffset: -20,
backgroundXOffset: 0,
backgroundYOffset: -17,
pointRadius: 10
})
}
);
Var layer2 = new OpenLayers.Layer.Vector("Markers 2",
{
projection: new OpenLayers.Projection("EPSG:4326"),
styleMap: new OpenLayers.StyleMap({
externalGraphic: "http://openlayers.org/dev/img/marker-gold.png",
backgroundGraphic: "http://openlayers.org/dev/examples/marker_shadow.png",
graphicYOffset: -20,
backgroundXOffset: 0,
backgroundYOffset: -17,
pointRadius: 10
})
}
);
Map.addLayer(layer1);
Map.addLayer(layer2);
Var feature1 = new OpenLayers.Feature.Vector(new OpenLayers.Geometry.Point(-1904105.3415234375, 4392319.753066596)); Var feature2 = new OpenLayers.Feature.Vector(new OpenLayers.Geometry.Point(-1504105.3415234375, 4392319.753066596));
Layer1.addFeatures([feature1]);
Layer2.addFeatures([feature2]);
dragControl.addFeature(feature1);
featureEvtHandler.addFeature(feature2);
/////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
When occurs an event(dragstart, drag, dragend, click, mouseover, mouseout) in any of this features, in different layers, the callbacks will be notified.
If you have any questions just ask us (André or João)!

André Matos

Hi Andre,

I have no experience with the DragFeature control, but I have created
a solution for feature selection that works with multiple layers
recently [1]. An example is also avaialable [2].
You may want to check this out, and I'd be interested to see your
approach. Also, it would be cool to see if my approach also works with
the DragFeature control.
Regards,
Andreas.
