    107107JOSM offers some general options of this download window:
    108  Download as new layer::
    109   If checked, the data is loaded in a new layer, if not selected, the data is loaded in the current data layer. (If there isn't any data layer yet, a new data layer is always created.)
    110108 Open this dialog on startup::

    112110 Zoom to downloaded data::
    113111  If checked the map view will move to the downloaded data after downloading, if not checked it will stay at its current position. (If [ExpertMode expert mode] is off this checkbox is not displayed.)

     113By default the "Download" button should be used. If you want to download data to a separate [wikitr:/Help/Dialog/LayerList Data Layer] use the "Download as new layer" button. (If there isn't any data layer yet, this option is not available.)
