Description
When downloading an area, JOSM will automatically zoom to it.
When downloading a single relation through the remote control plugin, using a link (e.g. http://localhost:8111/import?url=http://api.openstreetmap.org/api/0.6/relation/1274563), JOSM will zoom all the way out (such that the whole world will fit into the window).
When a WMS layer is active and visible, this behavior causes JOSM to freeze. Switching the WMS layer to invisible will prevent this behavior.
On a side note, this auto-zoom behavior is not always desirable anyway (can get annoying when downloading an additional area while editing).
I would suggest making the zoom behavior configurable:
- A check box in the download dialog (Zoom to selected area after download)
- A check box to enable/disable zoom on areas downloaded via Remote Control, possibly dependent on object downloaded (e.g. zoom on ways but not on relations and not on points)
- Do not zoom out if download area is larger than user-configurable threshold
I'm tagging component as "unspecified" as it may affect multiple components (Plugin remote control, core, possibly plugin WMS)
