The example is now focused on showing how a kind of "tracing" mode can be achieved using the Draw interaction, making it easier for the user to snap to an existing geometry while preserving topology.

This example showcases how the draw interaction API can be set up to make snapping along
|
|
an existing geometry easier while preserving topology, which is sometimes called "tracing".
|
|
When the user clicks on two different points on the Idaho state border,
|
|
the part of the border comprised between these two points is added to
|
|
the currently drawn feature.
|
|
This leverages the `appendCoordinates` method of the `ol/interaction/Draw` interaction.
