[OpenLayers-Users] edge panning

[Alexandre Dube]

Hi Rich,

   "With any drawing control active, paning the map can still be 
achieved. Drag the map as usual for that." as mentioned and demonstrated 
in this [example].  It is a default behavior now.  Could that do the 
trick for you ?

Regards,

Alexandre
