Rectangular selection

DragXY, DragX and DragY

To fetch the collection of data under a particular region, you have to set selectionMode as DragXY.

DragXY - Allows us to select data with respect to horizontal and vertical axis.
DragX - Allows us to select data with respect to horizontal axis.
DragY - Allows us to select data with respect to vertical axis.

The selected data’s are returned as an array collection in the dragComplete event.
