| 14 | | Projection method:: |
| 15 | | For the current session the projection method can be changed here. |
| 16 | | A list of common projections is offered and customs projections can be set.\\ |
| 17 | | \\ |
| 18 | | **Projection code** shows the EPSG code for the projection.\\ |
| 19 | | \\ |
| 20 | | **Bounds** shows the region where the projection is valid. |
| 21 | | Some projections are valid only for small parts of the world.\\ |
| 22 | | \\ |
| 23 | | Common default projection for JOSM is Mercator (EPSG:3857). |
| 24 | | It has certain advantages, one of them is that geometric figures (e.g. circles and rectangles) aren't deformed when displayed. |
| 25 | | JOSM reprojects raster images from the projection of the source automatically to the current projection method. |

| 49 | | == Tagging Presets == #TaggingPresets |
| 50 | | ''If you want to learn how presets can also be added to the toolbar see - [wikitr:/Help/Preferences/Toolbar Toolbar Customization]''[[br]] |
| 51 | | ''If you want to use presets or need complete reference of presets see [wikitr:/Presets Presets]''[[br]] |
| 52 | | |
| 53 | | [wikitr:/Help/Concepts/Object#presets Presets] allow you to select predefined tags for [wikitr:/Help/Concepts/Object objects]. From this area of the preferences menu you can choose which presets to use. |
| 54 | | |
| 55 | | The preset list will be downloaded automatically, then you have two options: |
| 56 | | |
| 57 | | === Activate preset(s) from available presets === |
| 58 | | |
| 59 | | Use [[JOSMImage(preferences/activate-right,20,link=)]] the blue, right arrow in the middle. |
| 60 | | |
| 61 | | Items on the right will appear in [wikitr:/Help/Menu/Presets Presets menu]. |
| 62 | | |
| 63 | | [[Image(wiki:TaggingPresets:TaggingPresets.png,link=)]] |
| 64 | | |
| 65 | | === Add a preset from the file === |
| 66 | | |
| 67 | | Include one from a URL or local file (or network-located file or file in a Dropbox alternative) by clicking on the [[JOSMImage(dialogs/add,20,link=)]] plus button on the right. |
| 68 | | |
| 69 | | Adding presets requires a restart of JOSM. Then the [wikitr:/Introduction#Presets tagging presets can be selected as usual]. |
| 70 | | |
| 71 | | == File Backup == #BackupSettings |
| 72 | | If you save geo data to a local file and the file already exists JOSM writes the data to a temporary file (with the suffix {{{~}}}). It then copies the temporary file to the target file. |
| 73 | | In the File Backup settings you can specify whether JOSM should delete the temporary file or whether it should leave it as "backup" in the file system. |
| 74 | | |
| 75 | | 1. Go to the tab **File backup** in the Map Preferences |
| 76 | | 1. Select or deselect the checkbox **Keep backup files** |
