This is set in the openmap.properties file, you can remove the
selectMouseMode property from the openmap.components property. There
are other mouse modes in there, too, you can change which ones are
added to the application there.

The drawing tool finds all layers that implement the
DrawingToolRequestor interface. You could remove your layer from the
MapHandler by setting the addToBeanContext flag = false, and then the
tool wouldn't find it. I don't know how that affects your layer,
though.

Alternatively, if your layer is using the drawing tool it finds in the
MapHandler, you could make a DrawingToolRequestor proxy object that
your layer uses that is hidden from the MapHandler that it gives to the
drawingTool, and then it can notify your layer when it receives
something back from the drawing tool.

Hope this helps,
