Maybe put it in a different color or font to let them know that they're setting a different kind of property? JOSM already has a command Paste Tags (Ctrl+Shift-v) where it adds the tags of a copied object to all currently selected objects. That key stroke is a bit of a stretch to do with one hand. But, if you assign a single key to this command I guess this might get you pretty far to what you want to do. Then, you can simply draw with one hand and hit the keyboard with the other.

Does anyone have any ideas for how the interface for this might work? Maybe a menu with toggles in it? Perhaps you could select one of the presets to be default? Have a checkbox in the preset dialog which says Apply this preset automatically. When you create a new node/way/relation, if the default preset is not unsuitable, apply its values to the new item just as if the user had clicked Apply Preset while not selecting anything in the dialog. At the end of the Presets drop-down menu could be a Default Preset which would pop up the preset whose checkbox is currently selected. Would ordinarily be greyed out if nothing had been checked. Only thing wrong I see with this is that you have to create a new preset if no existing preset will set the attributes you want. -- --my blog is athttp://blog.russnelson.com Crynwr supports open source software 521 Pleasant Valley Rd. | +1 315-600-8815 Potsdam, NY 13676-3213 | Sheepdog ___ josm-dev mailing list josm-dev@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/josm-dev

Does anyone have any ideas for how the interface for this might work? Maybe a menu with toggles in it? We had one suggestion by a user that goes slightly in this direction: On the main map you would have a certain area (clipboard). You could copy or drag objects onto this area, the important idea is, that it stays fixed regardless how you scroll or zoom the map. In combination with Ctrl-C, Ctrl-Shift-V (paste tags) you would have easy access to often used tags and geometries. Maybe there would be a way to mark objects in the clipboard as auto apply, i.e. all it's tags are sticky tags.
