Re: [josm-dev] Feature Request: Timed Save

 Personally I prefer doing a series of edits then I upload them in one single
 batch - probably because I am too lazy to add comments with every upload.
 The other scenario is that e.g. you lose your network connection while
 editing and obviously you don't want to lose your edits by closing JOSM
 down. It would be really handy to be able to continue later on.

Save your edits as .osm file?

 A similar third scenario: you are surveying for several days with your
 laptop and you don't have network access. You don't want to keep JOSM open
 for the entire period of time as you want to shut your system down when not
 working to save battery.

Save your edits as .osm file?

Yet apart from that an automatically created autosave.osm would be nice 
indeed.

 By the way, will JOSM detect conflicts when uploading, right?, i.e. when
 somebody else has edited the same primitives while being offline.

Yes. You will be prompted to download the area of conflict and resolve 
them with the help of the... *drumroll* conflict resolve window :)

Save your edits as .osm file?


And lose your undo history when reloading?

yes. IMHO that's a minor issue. If you're editing you might need a lot
of undos for the last actions, but you will never (at least me) undo
all of your work because you made a mistake at the beginning (and
loose all the other edits). Either you undo shortly after the action
or you will not undo generally,
my 2 cts.

+1 for an autosave action (sure, in the background would be very
nice), configurable (on/off and time intervall in minutes)

cheers,
Martin

If the crash is unpredictable, you might need to undo some last actions 
after recovering from the *.osm file.

With a configurable file name pattern, it could be even more useful.  
Then you would have some history by having multiple snapshots of the 
work.

Re: [josm-dev] FYI: german Josm cheat sheet

2010-06-24 Thread Jonas Stein

I started to include JOSM-Icons from the wiki page.
Are you fine with that?

Would you support it if i insert the josm logo under the headline?


 I have started to write a german cheat sheet for JOSM beginners.
 its 3 fold DIN-A4
 It is primary for my mapping party, where new users need/wish some 
 help on paper.

 ideas and contributions are welcome,
