Hi,
I have the opposite problem. I use the 'old style' pan and zoom tools on a version 2.2 viewer. I would like the drawing tools to remain active rather than deactivate at the end of each selection. Th eidea is that the user might want ot make multiple selections and having to repeatedly select the drawing tool is a bit frustrating. So I have removed the line of code suggested by Robert above (event.target.deactivate();) in my Drawend method. However, this fix only works the first time the tool is used. That is to say, I can make as many selections as I like without the tool deactivating, once the tool is open for the firts time in a session, but as soon as I close it and select another tool (pan, zoom etc), my drawing widget reverts to deactivating after a single selection. Any ideas? This behaviour is really baffling!
