    77Settings for the map projection and data interpretation
    88
    9 == Map Projection ==
    109On each startup JOSM sets the projection method, the coordinate display format and the system of measurement back to user default settings.
    1110
    12 === Projection method ===
     11== Projection method ==
    1312For the current session the projection method can be changed here. \\
    1413A list of common projections is offered and customs projections can be set.
     
    1615 Projection code:: shows the EPSG code for the projection.
    1716 Bounds:: shows the region where the projection is valid. \\
    18  Some projections are valid only for small parts of the world.\\
     17 Some projections are valid only for small parts of the world. \\
    1918
    2019Common default projection for JOSM is Mercator (EPSG:3857). \\
    2120It has certain advantages, one of them is that geometric figures (e.g. circles and rectangles) aren't deformed when displayed. \\
    22 JOSM reprojects raster images from the projection of the source automatically to the current projection method.
     21JOSM re-projects raster images from the projection of the source automatically to the current projection method.
    2322
    2423 Set as default::
     
    2625 It is visible in [wikitr:/Help/ExpertMode Expert mode] only, #14877.
    2726
    28 === Display coordinates as ===
     27
     28== Display coordinates as ==
    2929Set the user default coordinate format (Decimal, Degrees, Nautical or Projected Coordinates).
     30
    3031 
    31 === System of measurement ===
     32== System of measurement ==
    3233Set the user default system of measurement (Metric, Chinese, Imperial or Nautical Mile).
    3334
     
    3536So the numbers in ''Bounds'' may not fit to ''Display coordinates as''.
    3637
    37 
    38 == Map Paint Styles == #MapPaintStyles
    39 In this tab the styles for displaying the data can be changed. Beside the internal styles also externals styles are presented and can be activated.
    40 
    41 [[Image(MapPaintStylesPreferences.png,link=,40%)]]
    42 
    43 See [wikitr:/Styles] and [wikitr:/Help/Dialog/MapPaint Map Styles panel].
    44 
    45 
    46 == Tagging Presets == #TaggingPresets
    47 ''If you want to learn how presets can also be added to the toolbar see - [wikitr:/Help/Preferences/Toolbar Toolbar Customization]'' \\
    48 ''If you want to use presets or need complete reference of presets see [wikitr:/Presets Presets]'' \\
    49 
    50 [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.
    51 
    52 The preset list will be downloaded automatically, then you have two options:
    53 
    54 === Activate preset(s) from available presets ===
    55 Use [[JOSMImage(preferences/activate-right)]] the blue, right arrow in the middle. \\
    56 Items on the right will appear in [wikitr:/Help/Menu/Presets Presets menu].
    57 
    58 [[Image(wiki:TaggingPresets:TaggingPresets.png,link=,40%)]]
    59 
    60 === Add a preset from the file ===
    61 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)]] plus button on the right.
    62 
    63 Adding presets requires a restart of JOSM. Then the [wikitr:/Introduction#Presets tagging presets can be selected as usual].
    64 
    65 
    66 == File Backup ==#FileBackup
    67 [[Image(josm_prefs_file_backup.png,link=,right,margin-left=10)]]
    68 
    69 === Autosave ===
    70 * **Auto save enable**: enable or disable [wikitr:/Help/Action/AutoSave autosave] altogether (`autosave.enabled`)
    71  * **Auto save interval**: set a custom value for the time interval in seconds (default is 300) (`autosave.interval`).
    72  * **Auto save files per layer**: set a custom value for the number of backup files per data layer (default is 1) (`autosave.filesPerLayer`). \\
    73  If you increase it to 2, JOSM will not only save the last snapshot of your changes, but also the last but one (in case it differs from the last, otherwise an even older snapshot, if available).
    74 
    75 === Backup ===
    76 * **Keep backup files when saving data layers**: enable or disable file backup of data files (`save.keepbackup`) \\
    77  If you save a data layer to a local file and the file already exists JOSM writes the data to a temporary file (with a tilde `~` as suffix). It then copies the temporary file to the target file. \\
    78  Here you can specify whether JOSM should delete the temporary file or whether it should leave it as "backup" in the file system.
    79 
    80 === Notification ===
    81 * **Notification at each save**: choose if you want to see a small notification at each save (`autosave.notification`).
