[[Image(source:/trunk/images/downloadprimitive.png)]] ''Download object'' loads an OSM object (node, way or relation) from the OSM API server either in the current data layer or in a new data layer.  The downloaded data will contain the way nodes for ways and optionally any referrers (ways or relations that reference the downloaded object).  Note: Only the referrers of the downloaded object itself are downloaded, not the referrers for any of its children (way nodes).

The following dialog is displayed:

You can choose the type of object to download and enter its ID and click '''Download object'''.

You can choose whether or not any referrers are to be downloaded:
 * if '''Download referrers''' is selected, any referring objects are downloaded
 * if '''Download referrers''' is not selected, no referrers are downloaded

You can control whether the data is loaded into the current or in a new layer:
 * if '''Separate layer''' is selected, the data is loaded into a new layer
 * if '''Separate layer''' is not selected, the data is merged into the current data layer

If there isn't a data layer yet, a new data layer is always created.
