Notes Dialog

This dialog presents a list of OSM notes and allows to create new, comment, close or reopen notes. These notes can also be edited on the main page osm.org (right toolbar).
Downloading notes
There are different possibilities:
- Use the "Notes" checkbox in the download dialog.
- Search for a Note via the File menu → Search Notes...
- Use File menu → Open Location... and enter a special URL.
- Use File menu → Download notes in current view
- Use the "Download notes in current view" button of this Dialog
- Downloading via remote control on osm.org is not yet working (see #11367 and github issue)

(You can set this value also under Connection Preferences.)- set a number > 0 to set the days (e.g.
10
means a note which was closed 10 days ago will be downloaded, a note which was closed 11 days ago will not) - set it to
0
, to download only open notes - set it to
-1
, to download all created notes ever (of course only in the selected area and limited to the maximum download limit, see below)
