 Run data validator on user input::
  ''(default: disabled)'' \\
  ''Advance preference: `taggingpreset.validator`''

  [[JOSMImage(dialogs/validator)]] [wikitr:/Help/Dialog/Validator Validator] is run in background and in case of issues, a warning icon [[JOSMImage(warning-small)]] is displayed on top with the validator message as tooltip. \\

 Sort presets menu alphabetically::
  ''(default: enabled)'' \\
  ''Advance preference: `taggingpreset.sortvalues`''

  Whether the preset menu should be sorted alphabetically or the original order be kept

== Presets ==

Items on the right will appear in [wikitr:/Help/Menu/Presets presets menu]. The preset list on the left will be downloaded automatically.

* [[JOSMImage(preferences/activate-right)]] Activate preset(s) from available presets by using the blue, right arrow in the middle.
* [[JOSMImage(dialogs/add)]] Add a preset from a local file or a network-located preset by an URL (https)
* [[JOSMImage(dialogs/edit)]] Change an existing entry
* [[JOSMImage(dialogs/delete)]] Remove an existing entry

A search field in the left list allows easier finding of specific presets.

With the `Icon paths` section (also with add, edit and delete buttons) data directories for icons can be specified. Typically these are included in the presets so this field can be ignored most of the time.
