     14
     15== Simple use case ==
     16Select each way separately or several ways together and hit `Q`. This will orthogonalize each single way on its own. Ways with minimum two sharing nodes which are selected together will be orthogonalized together, too.

     21== Using two nodes for alignment ==
     22You can select two additional nodes. Then segments will be aligned in accordance with these nodes.

     27== Complex buildings ==
     28* temporarily split buildings with `P` [wikitr:/Help/Action/SplitWay Split Way]
     29* orthogonalize portions of a building as usual
     30* reconnect parts back with `C` [wikitr:/Help/Action/CombineWay Combine Ways]

     34To orthogonalize a part of a building without splitting it, simply select the wanted nodes. Note that the selection order of the nodes does matter here, so selecting e.g. via rectangle will usually not work.

     40Select nodes you want to undo, then press `Shift+Q` and selected nodes will be placed back to origin.
