| 61 | | === Select and draw mode options === |
| 62 | | |
| 63 | | Draw virtual nodes in select mode:: |
| 64 | | Draw virtual nodes in select mode for easy way modification. |
| 65 | | Allows to add nodes by dragging the cross in the middle of each way segment in [wikitr:/Help/Action/Select Select] or [wikitr:/Help/Action/LassoMode Lasso] modes. |
| 66 | | |
| 67 | | Draw rubber-band helper line:: |
| 68 | | .A variable segment between the last set node and the mouse pointer is shown in [wikitr:/Help/Action/Draw Draw mode]. |
| 69 | | |
| 70 | | |
| 71 | | === Options that affect drawing performance === |
| 72 | | |
| 73 | | Smooth map graphics (antialiasing):: |
| 74 | | Apply antialiasing to the [wikitr:/Help/MapView map view] resulting in a smoother appearance. |
| 75 | | |
| 76 | | Smooth map graphics in wireframe mode (antialiasing):: |
| 77 | | Apply antialiasing to the map view in wireframe mode resulting in a smoother appearance. |
| 78 | | In addition to these, the option to switch from ''wireframe'' to ''paint'' view can be found on the [wikitr:/Help/Action/WireframeToggle menu] View Menu. |
| 79 | | |
| 80 | | Highlight target ways and nodes:: |
| 81 | | Highlight target nodes and ways while drawing or selecting. |
| 82 | | Other objects glow when they are in the catch radius of the mouse pointer. |
| 83 | | |
| 84 | | Draw only outlines of areas:: |
| 85 | | This option suppresses the filling of areas, overriding anything specified in the active [wikitr:/Styles styles]. |
| 86 | | |
| 87 | | Hide labels while dragging the map:: |
| 88 | | This option hides the textual labels of OSM objects while dragging the map. |
| 89 | | |
| 90 | | |
| 91 | | === Other options === |
| 92 | | |
| 93 | | Draw boundaries of downloaded data:: |
| 94 | | Draw the boundaries of data loaded from the server. |
| 95 | | When downloading an area you get and see all the data within the rectangular bounding box you chose. |
| 96 | | This includes some ways extending outside that box. |
| 97 | | It therefore becomes difficult to distinguish which areas contain full or partial data. |
| 98 | | If you check the "Draw boundaries of downloaded data" box, yellow hatching is drawn over all the areas into which data has not been fully downloaded. |
| 99 | | You should avoid adding or editing data in areas of yellow hatching as it may duplicate already existing data or conflict with data you don't see. |
| 100 | | This option can be changed with [wikitr:/Help/Menu/View Draw boundaries of downloaded data] on the View menu, too. |
| 101 | | |
| 102 | | Draw inactive layers in other color:: |
| 103 | | Draw the inactive data layers in a different color. |
| 104 | | Map objects not on the [wikitr:/Help/Dialog/LayerList#ActivateLayer Active data layer] are drawn in grey color. |
| 105 | | |
| 106 | | Display discardable keys:: |
| 107 | | Display keys which have been deemed uninteresting to the point that they can be silently removed. |
| 108 | | They will be listed in light grey color in the Tags/Memberships panel. |
| 109 | | These [/ticket/8512 outdated keys] will be stripped off from modified objects on upload. |
| 110 | | |
| 111 | | Use auto filters:: |
| 112 | | Display buttons to automatically filter numeric values of a predefined tag. |
| 113 | | [wikitr:/Help/Dialog/Filter#Autofilters Auto filters] can be enabled here and the tag to be used for the autofilter can be chosen. |
| 114 | | |
| 115 | | Rule:: |
