add mode
Double Click | Ends the current way. |
Shift-Click | Holding the "Shift" key turns off extending the selected way |
Ctrl-Click | Holding the "Ctrl" key prevents snapping on existing ways and nodes. |
Alt-Click | Holding the "Alt" key creates a separated though connected way (same you could do afterwards by selecting a node and press P). This mode is marked by a small bar at the previous node. |
delete mode
Shift-Click | Holding the "Shift" key and clicking on a way segment only deletes this way segment and not the whole way. |
Ctrl-Click | Holding the "Ctrl" key deletes object and references (i.e. ways using this node). |
Alt-Click | Holding the "Alt" key and clicking on a way only deletes the way without its nodes. |
all modes
Click-RightMouse | Click and drag to move the map. |
Scroll-Wheel | Zoom in and out. |
Note: In gnome desktop environment "Alt"-Click is used for moving the window. The "AltGr" key can be used instead; note that on some keyboards the "AltGr" key is simply the right-hand "Alt" key.
