Editing NameTemplate

Adjust edit area height: Edit side-by-side

Name templates can be used to define custom formatting for gpx waypoints or osm primitives (for example in the Relations or the Selection lists).

= Where to define =

Create a text file as described below. Then refer to it from Tagging Presets (F12, Map Settings (3rd item), 3rd tab)

= Configuration file =
The configuration file can look like this:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>[[BR]]
<presets>[[BR]]
	<item name="Public transportation" type="relation"[[BR]]
		name_template="Bus({operator} {ref} ?{'{from} - {via} - {to}' | '{from} - {to}' | '{from}' | '{to}'})"[[BR]]
		name_template_filter="type=route route=bus">[[BR]]
	</item>[[BR]]
</presets>[[BR]]

= Syntax =
* {var} - use value of variable var
* ?{condition1 'value1' | condition2 'value2 | 'value3'} - use value1 if condition1 is satisfied, value3 is no condition is satisfied. Condition can be either explicit -  the same expression as in search or filters is used - or implicit; the value is used when all variables used inside exist

= Samples =
||= Template =||= Tags =||= Result =||
|| House number {addr:housenumber} || addr:housenumber=10 || House number 10
|| ?{ 'House number {addr:housenumber} at {addr:street}' | 'House number {addr:housenumber}'  } || addr:housenumber=10 || House number 10
|| || addr:housenumber=10, addr:street=Abbey road || House number 10 at Abbey road
|| ?{ admin_level = 2 'NUTS 1' | admin_level = 4 'NUTS 2' | admin_level = 6 'NUTS 3' |  'Admin level {admin_level}'} ||  admin_level=4 || NUTS 2 
|| || admin_level=5 || Admin level 5

= Available values =
For formatting of OSM primitives , the value of any tag can be used. You can use {special:everything} to see what values are available for your gpx waypoints.

Some additional variables are available  via the special prefix:
- {special:everything} prints all available values, available for formatting of both primitives and waypoints.
- {special:id} prints the ID of an osm primitive
- {special:localName} prints the localized name, that is the value of name:lang for your language if it is available or the value of the name tag if it doesn't.
