- When the resize with only fixed proportions is enabled ([resizeMode](https://www.graphicsmill.com/docs/gmwc/P_J_GraphicsMill_RectangleRubberband_resizeMode.htm.md) = [proportional](https://www.graphicsmill.com/docs/gmwc/T_J_GraphicsMill_ResizeMode.htm.md)), there are four grips for each rectangle corner is available.
- When the resize is disabled ([resizeMode](https://www.graphicsmill.com/docs/gmwc/P_J_GraphicsMill_RectangleRubberband_resizeMode.htm.md) = [none](https://www.graphicsmill.com/docs/gmwc/T_J_GraphicsMill_ResizeMode.htm.md)), no grips are displayed regardless of the gripsVisible value.
