 **Split a way by clicking**. \\ 
-The mode splits a way like the action [[JOSMImage(mapmode/splitway)]] [wikitr:/Help/Action/SplitWay Split Way] using an existing or a new node depending on whether it is clicked on a node or in between nodes. Currently only open ways are supported. If more than one way is found as possible target to split a dialog with a list to choose from is presented.
+The mode helps with splitting ways, similar to the [[JOSMImage(mapmode/splitway)]] [wikitr:/Help/Action/SplitWay Split Way] action. 
+
+When this mode is selected, clicking on a way will split it at the clicked location. When an existing way node is clicked, the way will be split at this node, otherwise a new node will be created.
+
+If more than one way is found as a possible target, a dialog with a list of ways to choose from is presented. When one of the possible target ways is currently selected, the selected way will automatically be chosen.
+
+Ways that are disabled by a [[JOSMImage(dialogs/filter)]] [wikitr:/Help/Dialog/Filter filter] are ignored and will not be split.
+
+
+Only non-closed ways can currently be split with this mode, closed ways are not yet supported.
