Ability to add several tag/value combinations in one tag dialog

[Atalanttore]

Hi

it would be nice to add several tag/value combinations in one tag dialog.

Adding addresses you need to add tags like

• addr:street
• addr:housenumber
• addr:city
• addr:postcode
• addr:country

Up to now this means opening the tag dialog five times: Open tag dialog, enter tag and value, select OK, open next tag dialog, enter next tag and value, and so on ad nauseam.

Regards,

This is close to #8024.

Why not also use Shift+Enter and Shift+Click on OK for this feature ?

Not everyone knows these key combinations and a GUI is easier to use.

No, you need only to open Addresses preset dialog once for these tags.

The address tags were just an example. There are other cases where you have no preset.

Have just added Shift-Enter, thank you for idea.

Do you mean fast presets creation, table of tags like in Relation Editor or table like id | tag1 | tag2 | tag3 (see FixAddress plugin for example) ?

In 5645/josm:

fix #8301 (Exception while editing key value); Shift-Enter in Add Tag dialog adds tag without closing, see #8300

A table of tags like in Relation Editor.

Entering a bunch of new tag/value combinations would be much faster:
tag1 [tab] value1 [enter]
tag2 [tab] value2 [enter]
tag3 [tab] value3 [enter]
...

I have one minor issue on adding with Shift+Enter:

• please have the selection changed to "key" after adding a combination. Thanks.

Have a look at "Tag multiple objects"/Ctrl-T introduced to Utilsplugin2 (does not allow adding for now).

Unfortunately, Ctrl+T is the default terminal shortcut on my KDE system.

Various solutions already exist (see discussion above).
