@Component({

    `
      .rectangle {
        position: relative;
        top: 200px;
        display: flex;

        margin: auto;
      }

      mwlResizable {
        box-sizing: border-box; // required for the enableGhostResize option to work
      }

      .resize-handle-top,
      .resize-handle-bottom {
        position: absolute;
        height: 5px;
        cursor: row-resize;
        width: 100%;
      }

      .resize-handle-top {

      }

      .resize-handle-right {
        right: 0;
      }
    `,
  ],
  template: `
    <div class="rectangle" mwlResizable [enableGhostResize]="true" (resizeEnd)="onResizeEnd($event)">
      <div class="resize-handle-top" mwlResizeHandle [resizeEdges]="{ top: true }"></div>
