Extent Interaction

Using an Extent interaction to draw an extent.

This example shows how to use an Extent interaction to draw a modifiable extent.

Use Shift+Drag to draw an extent. Shift+Drag on the corners or edges of the extent to resize it. Shift+Click off the extent to remove it.

main.js

import ExtentInteraction from 'ol/interaction/Extent.js';
import Map from 'ol/Map.js';
import OSM from 'ol/source/OSM.js';
import TileLayer from 'ol/layer/Tile.js';
import View from 'ol/View.js';
import {shiftKeyOnly} from 'ol/events/condition.js';

const map = new Map({
  layers: [
    new TileLayer({
      source: new OSM(),
    }),
  ],
  target: 'map',
  view: new View({
    center: [0, 0],
    zoom: 2,
  }),
});

const extent = new ExtentInteraction({condition: shiftKeyOnly});
map.addInteraction(extent);
