v45 v46 4 4 = Validator panel = 5 5 6 [[JOSMImage(dialogs/validator,48,link=,middle,margin-right=20)]] ''Keyboard shortcut:'' ** {{{Alt+Shift+V}}}** — one of the [wikitr:/Help/ToggleDialogs#Toactivateawindow JOSM panels]6 [[JOSMImage(dialogs/validator,48,link=,middle,margin-right=20)]] ''Keyboard shortcut:'' **`Alt+Shift+V`** — one of the [wikitr:/Help/ToggleDialogs#Toactivateawindow JOSM panels] 7 7 8 8 The **JOSM Validator** is a feature of JOSM which checks and fixes invalid data. 9 9 10 10 11 == Usage == 11 12 * Click on the [[JOSMImage(dialogs/validator,16,top,link=)]] ''Validation'' button at the bottom of the validator panel or press {{{Shift+V}}} to run the validation process: 12 * Click on the [[JOSMImage(dialogs/validator,16,top,link=)]] ''Validation'' button at the bottom of the validator panel or press `Shift+V` to run the validation process: 13 13 * If there are currently no [wikitr:/Help/Dialog/SelectionList selected objects], then it checks all objects in [wikitr:/Help/Dialog/LayerList#LayerButtons the current layer]. 14 14 * If there are selected objects, then it checks only selected objects. … … 33 33 * [[JOSMImage(dialogs/fix)]] Manage Ignore – Shows a dialog to change the list of previously ignored errors. 34 34 35 35 36 == Ignore List Management == 36 37 37 [[Image(ValidatorIgnoreListManagement.png,link=)]] 38 38 … … 43 43 [[Image(IgnoreForNow.png,link=)]] 44 44 45 45 46 == Validation on upload == 46 47 47 If not disabled the validation process is also started on each upload to the server. For uploads only the modified elements are tested. If you abort the upload, the validator panel displays the result of the validation. 48 48 49 49 50 == Validation result can depend on the downloaded area == 50 51 51 Some validator tests include a check whether the tested object is in or out of the downloaded area to avoid false positives. The not downloaded area is displayed with a yellow hatching. Downloaded ways can end in the not downloaded area. If e.g. a waterway ends in the downloaded area then the validator warns that it should be connected to another waterway. If the waterway ends out of the downloaded area then the validator will not warn because it doesn't know if there is really an error because the possible connected waterway was not downloaded. The validator will also not warn if there was never an area download in this data layer (there is no yellow hatching in this layer). Such a layer exists when you e.g. create a [wikitr:/Help/Action/NewLayer new empty layer] or when you download single objects via [wikitr:/Help/Action/Download#DownloadfromOverpassAPI Overpass]. In both cases the data is assumed as incomplete and handled like out of the downloaded area to avoid false positives and a lot unnecessary warnings. 52 52
