Adjusting the size of a dynamically generated rectangle using DrawingManager

I am currently working on a web application using Azure Maps along with the DrawingManager library. My goal is to allow users to save a drawn rectangle and potentially edit it by resizing later on. The strange thing is that while resizing rectangles works fine right after adding them, there seems to be an issue when shapes are added programmatically, causing the rectangle to become distorted.

This issue can even be replicated in the provided online example: when attempting to resize a rectangle.

If anyone has encountered this problem before and has found a solution or workaround, I would greatly appreciate any insights.

When working with GeoJSON, it's important to note that there is no built-in rectangle object. If you're dealing with a polygon that resembles a rectangle, it will simply be treated as a polygon (as seen here).

If you are certain that the polygon represents a rectangle shape, consider utilizing the extended GeoJSON specification provided by Azure Maps. You can designate the geometry as a rectangle by adding the subType property to your polygon and informing the drawing manager accordingly.

For instance:

{
    "type": "Feature",
    "properties": {
        "subType": "Rectangle"
    },
    "geometry": {
        "type": "Polygon",
        "coordinates": [
            [[-122.35568,47.612875],[-122.28444,47.612875],[-122.28444,47.58046],[-122.35568,47.58046],[-122.35568,47.6128758]
            ]
        ]
    }
}

After some investigation, I was able to identify the issue on my own. It turns out that the problem lies with the example data and not with the library itself.

I realized that the coordinates in the loaded figure needed to be listed in reverse order for everything to work properly with the library.
