[OpenLayers-Users] Combine DrawFeatureControl with standard map behaviour

Hi Kristen,

I think only one control can be activated on the map at the same time. 
The reason is simple, they all have differents mouse handlers and 
behaviors. You'll need to propose a toolbar or something to let the user 
choose the control he wants to use. (see this example: 
http://www.openlayers.org/dev/examples/draw-feature.html ) If you really 
need to get both behaviors... you can easily create a new control, or 
overide some drawfeature functions to support shift+drag. 

Regards,
Alan
