Hello everyone, this my very first post and I'm new to the whole OpenLayers thing. Let me get to the point quickly...
I want to highlight buildings in an OpenLayers Map. I already figured out a way how to do this by using a vectorLayer. I create a linearRing which gets an array of Geometry.Points (representing the coordinates of the building). Then I create a Feature.Vector (here "polygonFeature") with this linearRing and do: vectorLayer.addFeatures([polygonFeature]); So far so good. But I asked myself why I have to use Geometry.Point and not just simply LonLat coordinates? My web-application on which I'm working is showing me a list of buildings. When I click on an list-entry I get a LonLat-Array containing the 'vertices' of the building. So now when I want to highlight my building by doing the above mentioned I need to convert these LonLats into Geometry.Points. How am I supposed to do that? Maybe you could give me short overview how LonLat and Geometry.Points are related to each other. I just can't make a sense of it right now. Thanks already for your help. I would appreciate a quick answer.
