Thank you both but neither solution works.
Whether selecting with left click pointer etc, or shift + click the rectangle will still re-size. Granted if you have a rectangle with a centre dot i.e., 3,5,7 etc dots, but not with an even number. We are not understanding this. With a Rectangle/Extending Rectangle, if you have the "Pointer", "Crosshairs", or "Hand" tool selected along with the setting for "Tool >> Tool Settings >> General >> Support Left Click to Select Chart Drawings" set to "Yes", then you can select the rectangle and grab one of the points on the "edge" and then change just that edge. We do not see how the number of points that displays on the edge has anything to do with how this functions. How is this not working for you? In most window programs User708541 is correct and using shift will also create a straight line from a sloping line. Really useful.
Unfortunately, in Sierra, this doesn't work. With the "Line" tool active, hold down the "Ctrl" (Control) button to force the line to be horizontal or vertical (i.e. it will only allow for 0, 90, 180, and 270 degree locations).
