Class: DragBox

ol/interaction/DragBox~DragBox 


import DragBox from 'ol/interaction/DragBox';

Allows the user to draw a vector box by clicking and dragging on the map, normally combined with an module:ol/events/condition that limits it to when the shift or other key is held down. This is used, for example, for zooming to a specific area of the map (see module:ol/interaction/DragZoom~DragZoom and module:ol/interaction/DragRotateAndZoom).

This interaction is only supported for mouse devices.
