    1111Downloading data with the Download window in JOSM follows these 3 simple steps:
     
    14141. Click on [[JOSMImage(download)]] Download
    1515
     16 **Note:** If [ExpertMode Expert mode] is not enabled, the following text is displayed (at the bottom of the window): ''Use left click & drag to select an area, arrows or right mouse button to scroll the map, scroll wheel or +/- to zoom.''\\

    2325This is the default download method. Different types of data can be downloaded (it is possible to download all three types at once):
     
    3032You can download bigger areas using several smaller ones or try another source server.

    32 === Download from Overpass API ===#DownloadfromOverpassAPI
    33 [[Image(Overpass.png,link=)]]
     34=== Download from Overpass API ([wikitr:/Help/ExpertMode expert mode]) ===#DownloadfromOverpassAPI

    3537The big advantage of ''Download from Overpass API'' compared to ''Download from OSM'' is that you can limit the download to specific objects, rather than "all objects in an area". If you use this download method make sure you know what you are doing, as working with incomplete data sets can lead to relation issues, incorrect or duplicate data, or server conflicts at upload time. [osmwiki:Overpass_API/Sparse_Editing Sparse Editing] explains potential issues.

    5456Similar to Download from Overpass API this download method uses special queries to limit the downloaded data. It has the same features to store your favorite queries.

    6769=== Slippy map ===#Slippymap
    68 [[Image(SlippyMap.png,400,link=)]]
     70[[Image(Slippy map (macOS).png,400,link=)]]
    6971
    7072The ''Slippy map'' provides a movable map like on the OSM front page with which you can interactively select the area to download. Move the map the JOSM way by press and hold the right mouse button and select an area by press and hold the left mouse button.
     
    7375
    7476=== Bookmarks ===
    75 [[Image(Bookmarks.png,400)]]
     77[[Image(Bookmarks (macOS).png,400)]]
    7678
    7779In the ''Bookmarks'' tab you can select from your predefined bookmarks, or create a new bookmark from the current bounding box (bbox) or the area defined in another tab respectively.
     
    8486
    8587=== Bounding Box ===
    86 [[Image(BBox.png,400,link=)]]
     88[[Image(Bounding box (macOS).png,400,link=)]]
    8789
    8890In the ''Bounding Box'' tab you can set the latitude/longitude bounds of the data to be downloaded, and also paste an URL from either www.openstreetmap.org or www.informationfreeway.org.
     
    9597
    9698=== Area around places ===
    97 [[Image(AreaAroundPlaces.png,400,link=)]]
     99[[Image(Areas around places (macOS).png​,400,link=)]]
    98100
    99101On the ''Area around places'' tab you can search for specific places, street names, etc, in the OSM database. Currently, there is only one server for the search available: [osmwiki:Nominatim Nominatim]. If there are more than 10 results, only 10 results are displayed and the button changes to "Search more...". \\
     
    101103
    102104=== Tile Numbers ===
    103 [[Image(TileNumbers.png,400,link=)]]
     105[[Image(Tile numbers (macOS).png,400,link=)]]
    104106
    105107In the ''Tile Numbers'' tab you can enter a number of tiles and a zoom level to download data of those tiles. Alternatively, you enter a Tile address. This might look a little awkward, especially when reading [osmwiki:Slippy_map_tilenames how to compute the tile numbers]. But sometimes it comes in handy. If you want to easily determine the tile numbers with the mouse, see [https://help.openstreetmap.org/questions/40163/tile-browser-link-broken this help center question].
