    4 ''If you are looking for complete list of [Concepts/Object#Relations relations] loaded in your JOSM, see [Dialog/RelationList Relations window]''[[br]]
    5 ''Relations can be also edited using [Help/Menu/TagsMembershipMenu#Rightclickonitemsinmembershipspart simple right click menu] in [Help/Dialog/TagsMembership Tags/Membership window]''[[br]]
    6 ''Some of [wiki:Plugins plugins] can simplify [wiki:Help/Relations editing of relations], namely [Help/Plugin/TurnRestrictions turnrestrictions] or [http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Relations/Proposed/turn_lanes#Plugin turnlanes]''

    10 The relation editor window is one of many options to create, modify, and delete relations; this is most comprehensive tool in core JOSM.
    11 
    12 In the [#TagMember Tags and Members tab] below the listed keys and values there is a list that any relations of which the selected object is a member of is listed together with its "role" in that relation. Double-clicking on a line there will open this relationship editor for the relation in question.

    19 
    20 === Buttons on top ===
    21 
    22 || [[Image(source:trunk/images/dialogs/refresh.png)]] || Refresh relation from data layer (see [#RelationChangedOutsideOfEditor below] for more explanation) ||
    23 || [[Image(source:trunk/images/save.png)]] || Apply the current changes made within the relation editor to the data TODO: clarify when to use it ||
    24 || [[Image(source:trunk/images/duplicate.png)]] || Clone e.g create a copy of the relation and open it in another relation editor window ||
    25 || [[Image(source:trunk/images/dialogs/delete.png)]] || Delete the currently edited relation ||
     6A Relation editor handles the members and [wikitr:/Help/Concepts/Object#Tags1 tags] of exactly one [[JOSMImage(data/relation)]] [wikitr:/Help/Concepts/Object#Relations relation]. \\
     7\\
     8Don't confuse it with the [wikitr:/Help/Dialog/RelationList Relations list panel]. That [wikitr:/Help/ToggleDialogs Sidebar] panel lists all relations.

     11== The Dialog Layout ==
     12=== Buttons on top ===#Buttonsontop
     13||= **Icon** =||= **Description** =||
     14||  [[JOSMImage(dialogs/refresh)]]  || Refresh relation from data layer (see [#RelationChangedOutsideOfEditor below] for more explanation) ||
     15||  [[JOSMImage(save)]]  || Apply the current changes made within the relation editor to the data (see [#RelationChangedOutsideOfEditor below] for more explanation) ||
     16||  [[JOSMImage(dialogs/select)]]  || Select the relation of the relation editor ||
     17||  [[JOSMImage(duplicate)]]  || Clone e.g create a copy of the relation and open it in another relation editor ||
     18||  [[JOSMImage(dialogs/delete,24,link=,middle)]]  || Delete the currently edited relation ||
     19
    2820=== Tags and Members tab ===#TagMember
    29 The tags and members tab has an upper part similar to the [Dialog/TagsMembership Tags/Memberships window] where tags for the relation can be entered and a lower part that contains the list of members of the relation on the left side and a list of the current selection on the right.
     21The tags and members tab has an upper half where tags for the relation itself can be entered.
    3022
    31 [[Image(relation_editor.png,right,margin-left=15)]]
     23Its lower part has two separate lists. On the left the members of the relation are listed. The list on the right hand side shows the current selection of map objects.
    3224
    33 ==== Upper half, tags of the relation itself ====
    34 On top in the upper part are links to presets matching the current '''''tags of the relation''''' and below are the tags in a table. The three button one the left are:
     25In between the two parts the horizontal separator includes two buttons on the left side with a [[JOSMImage(svpUp,link=,middle,16)]] up and [[JOSMImage(svpDown,link=,middle,16)]] down arrow to move the separator to center, up or down and hide, respectively, display the upper or lower part.
    3526
    36 || [[Image(source:trunk/images/dialogs/add.png)]] || Add a new tag ||
    37 || [[Image(source:trunk/images/dialogs/delete.png)]] || Delete the current selected boxes of the tag table ||
    38 || [[Image(source:trunk/images/pastetags.png)]] || Paste tags from buffer ||
     27==== Tags of Relation (upper part) ====#TagsRelation
     28On top in the upper part are links to presets matching the current ''**tags of the relation**'' and below are the tags in a table.
    3929
    40 Note: In general it is easier to modify tags with the [Dialog/TagsMembership Tags/Memberships window].
     30Presets matching relation can be opened here (they are more suggestive than tags panel). [wikitr:/Introduction#Leftmouseclickonrespectivepresetheadingwillopencompletepresetview Click respective link to open full preset], as usual.
    4131
    42 ==== Bottom half, left side, members ====
     32[[Image(relation_editor.png,right,margin-left=15,link=)]]
     33
     34The three button one the left are:
     35||= **Icon** =||= **Description** =||
     36||  [[JOSMImage(dialogs/add)]]  || Add a new tag ||
     37||  [[JOSMImage(dialogs/delete,24,link=,middle)]]  || Delete the current selected boxes of the tag table ||
     38||  [[JOSMImage(pastetags)]]  || Paste tags from buffer ||
     39
     40When a tag line is selected, the `F1` key links to the tag's OSM wiki page, like in the [[JOSMImage(dialogs/propertiesdialog)]] [wikitr:/Help/Dialog/TagsMembership Tags/Memberships panel]
     41
     42**Note**: In general, it is easier to modify tags with the Tags/Memberships panel.
     43
     44==== Members List (bottom half, left side) ====#MembersList
    4345In the lower left part is the member table of the relation.

    45 ===== Table =====
     47===== Table =====#Table
    4648The table shows for each member:
    47  * its role on the left
    48  * in the middle the object type as icon plus some identifier like name, ref or simply the id of the object
    49  * on the right information about neighbor ways' connections useful for consistency checks like checking that the members of a [wiki:Help/Concepts/Object#typemultipolygon multipolygon] form closed ways or that a route is a complete line without missing some ways in the middle.

     54====== Context menu in table ======
     55Gap is indicated as red dot.
    5356

     121This pane recursively shows all child relations, e.g., for a [osmwiki:Relation:network network] all of its [osmwiki:Relation:route_master route master] and [osmwiki:Relation:route route] relations. Incomplete relations are downloaded when expanding or double-clicking the tree node. A separate relation editor is opened when double-clicking one of the child relations.

    122 A relation may be edited concurrently in the relation editor window ''and'' outside of the relation editor window. While the relation editor window for a relation is open you may for instance split a way the relation refers to. In this case, the relation is modified but the changes due to the way splitting are not immediately reflected in the relation editor window. You need to click on the [[Image(source:trunk/images/dialogs/refresh.png)]] refresh button to update the data in the relation editor. Anyhow JOSM keeps track of them and when you close the relation editor window or apply changes, without pressing the refresh button before, the following warning message is displayed:
