+=== Aligned move of selection ===
+If the last-added way in the selection consists of exactly two nodes, then the whole move can be aligned to its direction by pressing and holding `Ctrl` (Windows/Linux) or `Cmd` (Mac) while dragging.
+
+After mousebutton-down you can toggle `Ctrl` (resp. `Cmd`) arbitrarily often to switch between free and aligned move. The constrain offers four directions defined by the last-selected way (move within its direction, against it, and 90° rotations of these; vaguely comparable to the cardinal directions of a compass). To end an aligned move, it is recommended to release the mouse button before keyboard modifier key.
