    1313Where segments form a way, you can opt to display segment order numbers, showing which order in the way each segment is.  This helps to show ways which have segments in the wrong order, which can cause display problems in some renderers.  If the segments are not in the correct order they can be re-ordered from the tool in the [wiki:Help/MainMenu/Edit Edit] section of the main menu.

     15You can choose to show the boundary of downloaded data.  When downloading an area you get all the data within the rectangular bounding box you choose, and also, where any way within that bounding box extends outside the box it is completely downloaded.  It therefore becomes difficult to precisely know which areas you have downloaded full data for.  If you check the "Draw boundaries of downloaded data" box, a yellow rectangle is drawn around all the areas for which full data has been downloaded.  Caution should be exercised when adding new data to areas outside these rectangles as it may duplicate already existing data.
