Relations panel

Keyboard shortcut: Alt+Shift+R — one of the JOSM panels. Don't confuse it with the Relation Editor.

The Relations panel lists all relations in the active layer.

You can type in the box above the list to filter the relations. It searches in all keys and values of the relations.

It is possible to select multiple relations in the relation list: Hold down Ctrl to select one by one or Shift to select a range. Then you can do actions for all selected relations at once.
