[OpenLayers-Dev] Option to disable virtual vertices in the ModifyFeature control

[Casper Børgesen]

I have many situations where I would like to modify geometry, but preserve the number of vertices. As far as I can see that is not possible using the current ModifyFeature control. 

 

Would it be inappropriate to incorporate an option to disable/enable the use of virtual vertices? 

 

Looking at the code I only see one crucial place where checking this option is required, in collectVertices() (line 680) in ModifyFeature.js:

 

                // add virtual vertices in the middle of each edge

                if(geometry.CLASS_NAME != "OpenLayers.Geometry.MultiPoint") {

 

to

 

                // add virtual vertices in the middle of each edge

                if(geometry.CLASS_NAME != "OpenLayers.Geometry.MultiPoint" && control.disableVirtualVertices == false) {

 

I use this extension in my project, but for version compability I would prefer to have it incorporated in OpenLayers - if it is appropriate J
