Well, perhaps that's sort of a mode. Although I would define modes as different states the UI can be in with little or no user indication that it's in those states (e.g. Caps Lock key, Ins/Del). When you are in way construction mode, your mouse pointer is continually trailing a rubber band line, so it's hard to get confused and try and make a selection (for example). > I will add my proposal to that page as well. > > Is anyone implementing your proposal or intending to do so any time soon?

Drag-to-select or drag-to-insert? Gerv _______________________________________________ josm-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/josm-dev
