I think you wanted to say that you'd be in favor of option (1) ;-) I also like the idea of placing the bounds in feature.bounds, or feature.geometry.bounds if feature.geometry exists. So, I'm going to rework the patch attached to ticket http://trac.openlayers.org/ticket/2191 Thank's, F. _______________________________________________ Dev mailing list Dev@openlayers.org http://openlayers.org/mailman/listinfo/dev
