= Draw Nodes =

''Keyboard shortcut:'' N

This tool behaves differently depending on how you use it. 


 * If you click on a blank area of the screen you add a new node independent of any existing way.

 * If you select an end node of a way and then click on a blank area of the screen you add a new node to the end of the existing way.

 * If no node is previously selected and  you click between two nodes in an existing way the new node is added on the existing way, between two existing nodes. 

 * If a node is previously selected and  you click between two nodes in an existing way the new node is added on the existing way, between two existing nodes, and a way is drawn between the previously selected node and the new node. 

 * If you click near an existing node it draws a "segment" between what was previously selected and the existing node, and this allows you to re-use existing nodes to make a new way / area (so that certain nodes and "segments" can be reused in more than one way/ area).
