Hello all, I have a requirement thath the user be able to select a rectangular area of a map (via box selection) such that thereafter, the selection can be visualized either positively or negatively, meaning "only the selected area" or "everything except the selected area". To visualize the first case, I would like to have the map covered with a semi-opaque color (or some pattern), with the exception of the selected rectangle, where the map should be displayed normally. Vice-versa for the second case.
Can somebody give me a pointer how to implement this? It is of course easy to draw a box with fillOpacity=0.5 (covering case 2), but I am unclear how to cover the other case.
