+
+== Segment drawing options ==
+ Draw Direction Arrows::
+  Draw direction hints for way segments. \\
+  Small arrows at the end of each segment show the direction in which it was drawn. \\
+  ''Advance preference: `draw.segment.direction`''
+
+  With **Only on the head of a way** arrows are drawn only at the end of a way. \\
+  ''Advance preference: `draw.segment.head_only`''
+
+
+ Draw oneway arrows::
+  Draw arrows in the direction of oneways and other directed features. \\
+  For some ways that have direction dependent tags (like oneway) multiple oneway arrows can be drawn on the way. \\
+  ''Advance preference: `draw.oneway`''
+
+ Draw segment order numbers::
+  Draw the order numbers of all segments within their way. \\
+  ''Advance preference: `draw.segment.order_number`''
+
+ Draw segment order numbers on selected way::
+  Draw the order numbers only for ways in the [wikitr:/Help/Dialog/SelectionList Selection]. \\
+  ''Advance preference: `draw.segment.order_number.on_selected`
+
+[[Image(wiki:Help/Preferences/Display:osm-data.png,right,link=,margin-left=10,45%)]]
+
+== Select and draw mode options ==
+ Draw virtual nodes in select mode::
+  Draw virtual nodes in select mode for easy way modification. \\
+  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. \\  
+  ''Advance preference: `mappaint.node.virtual-size`''
+
+ Draw rubber-band helper line::
+  A variable segment between the last set node and the mouse pointer is shown in [wikitr:/Help/Action/Draw Draw mode]. \\
+  ''Advance preference: `draw.helper-line`''
+
+
+== Options that affect drawing performance ==
+These options are only available in [wikitr:/Help/ExpertMode Expert mode].
+
+ Smooth map graphics (antialiasing)::
+  Apply antialiasing to the [wikitr:/Help/MapView map view] resulting in a smoother appearance. \\
+  ''Advance preference: `mappaint.use-antialiasing`''
+
+ Smooth map graphics in wireframe mode (antialiasing)::
+  Apply antialiasing to the map view in [wikitr:/Help/Action/WireframeToggle wireframe mode] resulting in a smoother appearance. \\
+  ''Advance preference: `mappaint.wireframe.use-antialiasing`''
+
+ Highlight target ways and nodes::
+  Highlight target nodes and ways while drawing or selecting. \\
+  Other objects glow when they are in the catch radius of the mouse pointer. \\
+  ''Advance preference: `draw.target-highlight`''
+
+ Draw only outlines of areas::
+  This option suppresses the filling of areas, overriding anything specified in the active [wikitr:/Styles styles]. \\
+  ''Advance preference: `draw.data.area_outline_only`''
+
+ Hide labels while dragging the map::
+  This option hides the textual labels of OSM objects while dragging the map. \\
+  ''Advance preference: `mappaint.hide.labels.while.dragging`''
+
+
+== Other options ==
+ Draw boundaries of downloaded data::
+  Draw the boundaries of data loaded from the server. \\
+  When downloading an area you get and see all the data within the rectangular bounding box you chose. 
+  This includes some ways extending outside that box.  
+  It therefore becomes difficult to distinguish which areas contain full or partial data.  
+  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.  
+  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. \\
+  ''Advance preference: `draw.data.downloaded_area`''
+
+  This option can be changed with [wikitr:/Help/Menu/View Draw boundaries of downloaded data] on the View menu, too.
+
+ Draw inactive layers in other color::
+  Draw the inactive data layers in a different color. \\
+  Map objects not on the [wikitr:/Help/Dialog/LayerList#ActivateLayer Active data layer] are drawn in grey color. \\
+  ''Advance preference: `draw.data.inactive_color`''
+
+ Display discardable keys::
+  Display keys which have been deemed uninteresting to the point that they can be silently removed. ''**([wikitr:/Help/ExpertMode Expert mode] only)**'' \\
+  They will be listed in light grey color in the Tags/Memberships panel. 
+  These [/ticket/8512 outdated keys] will be stripped off from modified objects on upload. \\
+  ''Advance preference: `display.discardable-keys`''
+
+ Use auto filters::
+  Display buttons to automatically filter numeric values of a predefined tag. \\
+  [wikitr:/Help/Dialog/Filter#Autofilters Auto filters] can be enabled here and the tag to be used for the autofilter can be chosen. \\
+  ''Advance preference: `auto.filter.enabled`''
+
+ Rule::
+  Rule defining which tag will provide automatic filters, below a certain zoom level. \\
+  ''Advance preference: `auto.filter.rule`''
+
+
+== Additional Tabs ==
+Additional tabs may be added by [wikitr:/Plugins Plugins].
