All urls from osm.org work not only objects

source:trunk/resources/images/paste.svg Keyboard shortcut: Ctrl+V

Paste the contents of the clipboard,
at the mouse pointer position into the active data layer:

  • all nodes and parent objects will be preserved as they were selected (relative position is kept)
  • links in the data (node-way, way-relation and node-relation) will be respected only if they were selected; cloned objects will have (new) links similar to copied objects

Pasting URLs

When you have an open osm data layer and you paste an URL from osm.org e.g. https://www.openstreetmap.org/api/0.6/node/20830918/1 (first version of node 20830918) the objects from the url will be downloaded, by default to the current active data layer. This is a shortcut for source:trunk/resources/images/openlocation.svg Open Location and the previously used optional settings are respected.
