 Dragging selectors
 ------------------
 
-The `~matplotlib.widgets.RectangleSelector` and
-`~matplotlib.widgets.EllipseSelector` have a new keyword argument,
+The `~matplotlib.widgets.SpanSelector`, `~matplotlib.widgets.RectangleSelector`
+and `~matplotlib.widgets.EllipseSelector` have a new keyword argument,
 *drag_from_anywhere*, which when set to `True` allows you to click and drag
 from anywhere inside the selector to move it. Previously it was only possible
 to move it by either activating the move modifier button, or clicking on the
 central handle.
+
+The size of the `~matplotlib.widgets.SpanSelector` can now be changed using
+the edge handles.
