 === Middle Mouse Button ===
-If you click the scroll wheel (middle mouse button) a popup menu will be shown that allows you to select objects that are on top of each other. Click the scroll wheel again to select the next entry in the list. Hold down the scroll wheel to auto cycle through the list. Hold down {{{Ctrl}}} to select an object in the list with the mouse. You can {{{Alt+Left Click}}} to cycle through these objects without having to use the popup. If the latter doesn't work on Ubuntu systems, it's likely the key combination is catched before it is passed to JOSM. To fix this issue, start the gconf-editor (it's a GUI app but not present in Ubuntu's default menus) and go to Apps → Metacity → General. Change the setting "mouse_button_modifier" to something else.
