I can. :)

As of last night the 'Zoom in' and 'Zoom out' options on the Flash  
right-click menu are disabled in Potlatch. Better to use an OS-level  
magnifier, as John McK suggested... and there'll be other zoom options  
in future Potlatchs.

There is also a talk-us list which may be of help in future.

Re: [OSM-talk] Crazy ways after editing - A real argument for changeset data

2008-02-06 Thread Andy Robinson (blackadder)
David,

I took a look at this area a little more closely with JOSM and I can see its
not straight forwards to correct because it's not just one way that got
moved but blocks of connected ways from what I can tell. Unfortunately they
now lie over the top of other exiting ways so its difficult to select the
ones effected so that they can be simply slid back. I think the only way to
sort it will be to evaluate the history data for the nodes in the whole
area. From this you can see which nodes (and hence ways) were moved at
around the same time instance. 

For instance if I look at two connected ways that are displaced (6331826 and
6397132) and look at the node history for some of their nodes  I can see
that their position was last moved at a timestamp around
2008-02-04T04:32:24+00:00 they vary by some minutes in some cases so
perhaps it took a while for all the changes to update to the database.
Anyway, if a bit more checking was done it should be possible to automate a
rollback for all the affected data. Would need someone perhaps to help with
scripting that so perhaps David Hansen can assist with ideas.

Another option might be to use last week's planet dump and do a compare and
revert between the state last week and the state now. This will though mean
you loose data from the time of planet last week to Feb 04 if a delete and
re-insert is done.

Lets hope the folks that are looking at change set info via the API can find
us a long term solution to this problem as I'm sure its going to happen
again soon.

Hope this helps  move things along for you.

Cheers

Andy

Re: [OSM-talk] Crazy ways after editing - A real argument for changeset data

2008-02-06 Thread David Muir Sharnoff
I've now fixed the trouble.   I used JOSM to do it.   Here's what I did:

1.  Figure out how to install JOSM, install/enable YWMS, download data.
2.  Figure out how to use JOSM a bit.   The key things for me where the
 select mode, the edit mode, zooming and panning with the keyboard.
3.  Using potlatch, place a reference dot where the end of one of my
 broken ways should be.
4.  Select all the broken stuff.  For me that was both whole ways and
 selected points from partially-broken ways.
5.  Tag them with notes3: Oakland Potlach Fubar
6.  Using the scrolling keys, drag the whole lot of them half a screen
 at  time back to where they should be.

Since it's a problem that's created by Potlatch but needs JOSM to
repair, it's going to be hard for anyone else who gets hit.

That all said, I wish flash-zoom worked.   I like Potlatch.  In the
hills of Oakland, it's really hard to see where the streets are even
with flash-zoom.   Often impossible without.   Sometimes I have to
compare to Google imagery which is MUCH better.

Yikes, that looks nasty.

It looks like you have managed to slide the missing way across in the editor
view and then end up deleting the way that all those nodes were attached to.
You should be able to revert the way in Potlatch and you can get the
original positions from the history of each moved node.

eg http://www.openstreetmap.org/api/0.5/node/53018116/history

 Looking at the specific problems, I think that most of the points I
 touched during one longish editing session got moved several miles
 away (and all by the same amount).   Some points from the session
 did not get relocated.   For example, 6346890, Sotelo Ave is still fine.


Yes, and that Flash zoom stopped working with the update to Potlatch 0.7, as has
been discussed lately.  It is dangerous now to use that otherwise very useful
zooming option.

I've found my missing street.   The many (all?) of the moved points are
attached to it.   Is there a way to move all the points in a way by several
miles?   It will be difficult to do
manually.  I wish Potlatch had a bookmark feature so I could teleport
back and forth...
The way is 6331826, Park Blvd.

For example, point 53032784 needs to be moved on top of 24596866 and
the rest of way 6331826 needs the same change.

Pretty easy to manually slide the way back to its position using JOSM.
