I see JOSM as the AutoWikiBrowser of OSM. One issue I have is this: I often import selected ways (such as railways) in an area from xapi and then edit them, adding new ones and deleting bad ones. (On upload if I deleted something that's referenced by a non-downloaded object I get a conflict.) But if I then download a tiny area using the normal api, I can no longer delete anything outside that small box. I couldn't find an option to turn this off; is there one? -- View this message in context: http://gis.638310.n2.nabble.com/Why-I-don-t-use-JOSM-was-Re-Non-map-based-OSM-editor-tp5954371p5957258.html Sent from the General Discussion mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
