Hi, I have always tried to avoid using relations (never really accepted that is better than adding route= tags to ways, and they seem to complicate things quite a lot....), but I am trying to tidy up some long distance footpaths that have been done as relations.
The concept of relations is fine, but I am really struggling to find the instructions on how to edit them properly without breaking anything - for example: If I know a relation number, how do I load it (I don't mind which editor!) - the bit of countryside I am editing does not include it, so it does not appear in the JOSM relations list, but I have a number from a Wiki page. I have pretty much worked out how to add ways to relations using JOSM's relation editor, but haven't quite worked out how to re-order them, apart from doing it manually - is this possible? Is there a command line way of adding ways to a relation - for example, rather than doing it by clicking on things, I would quite like to do "add ways to relation XXXX where route="Pennine Way" or name="Pennine Way". Any pointers would be appreciated. Sorry for being dumb - I must have missed the documentation somewhere? Regards Graham. -- Dr. Graham Jones Hartlepool, UK email: [email protected]
