    7 There are ''base styles'' (e.g. [source:trunk/styles/standard/elemstyles.mapcss JOSM standard] or [source:trunk/styles/standard/potlatch2.mapcss Potlatch 2]) that cover a wide range of features each. They can be combined with ''add-on styles'' that cover more special topics. See the [#Availablestyleslist available styles list] below.

    1111== Choose styles ==#ChooseStyles
    12 
    1312JOSM has ''three lists'' of ''map styles:'' available styles (all styles from the style repository) → active styles (your favourites) → ☑ chosen styles (actually used for the map painting).
    1413
    1514JOSM comes with some styles being in the "active styles" list by default. You can choose styles from this list of "active styles" to be actually used for the map painting by clicking the check box (☑) at the desired style's line
    16 * in the [Help/Dialog/MapPaint map paint style dialog] or
    17 * in the [Help/Menu/View "View" menu] ( → "Map paint styles") or
    18 * (less comfortable) in the Map Paint Styles Preferences (see section below)
     15* in the [wikitr:/Help/Dialog/MapPaint map paint style dialog] or
     16* in the [wikitr:/Help/Menu/View "View" menu] ( → "Map paint styles") or
     17* in the Map Paint Styles Preferences (see section below)
    1918
    2019Note that, unless you are working with add-on styles, likely you want to have only one style ☑ checked at a time.

    2221=== Activating more styles ===
    23 [[Image(addstyle.gif, right, 250px, title=animation of how to activate and choose an example style)]] 
     22''Instructions:''
    2423
    25 ''Instructions:''
    26 1. open the [Help/Preferences/Map#MapPaintStyles Map Paint Styles Preferences] by either
    27    * clicking the [[Image(source:trunk/images/dialogs/mappaintpreference.png,middle)]] [Help/Dialog/MapPaint#MapStyleSettings Settings] button in the map style dialog (shown in the animation) or
    28    * via [Help/Menu/View "View" menu] → "Map paint styles" → "Map paint preferences" or
    29    * (less comfortable) via the general preferences window ([Help/Menu/Edit Menu Edit] → [Help/Action/Preferences Preferences] → [[Image(source:trunk/images/preferences/map.png,20,middle)]] [Help/Preferences/Map Map Settings] (3rd button on the left) → Map Paint Styles (2nd tab))
    30 1. select a style in the list of "available styles" (left side)
    31 1. activate it by clicking the [[Image(source:trunk/images/preferences/activate-right.png,middle)]] blue right arrow button (in the centre)
    32 1. exit and confirm by clicking the OK button
     241. Open the [wikitr:/Help/Preferences/MapPaintPreference Map Paint Styles preferences]
     25 * via the header of the Map Paint Styles panel with the [[JOSMImage(dialogs/mappaintpreference)]] [wikitr:/Help/Dialog/MapPaint#MapStyleSettings Preferences] button or [[Image(addstyle.gif,right,250px,title=animation of how to activate and choose an example style,margin=10,link=)]]

    34 ''Example:'' Let's assume that you want to add [osmwiki:Key:maxspeed maxspeed=*] tags to OSM, then you probably will make use of the style [wiki:Styles/Maxspeed Maxspeed] (which displays the value of maxspeed on roads with different colors). The screencast/animation on the right side (click to enlarge) shows how to add this style to your list of "active styles".

    3634==== Adding own styles ====
    37 You can add own styles (from any URL/file) to the list of active styles – for example a style file which you have [#CreateStyle created yourself]. Just click the [[Image(source:trunk/images/dialogs/add.png,middle)]] plus sign on the right and enter either path and filename or URL of your style file.

    4342== Create your own style ==#CreateStyle
    4443You don't like the standard style? Change it to your own liking:
    4544
    46 * In the [Help/Dialog/MapPaint map paint style dialog], right click one of the styles and select [[Image(source:/trunk/images/copy.png,middle)]] "save as...". A copy will be added to the list of styles. You can open the file in a text editor and reload after doing some changes.
     45* In the [wikitr:/Help/Dialog/MapPaint map paint style dialog], right click one of the styles and select [[JOSMImage(copy,middle,24,link=)]] "save as...". A copy will be added to the list of styles. You can open the file in a text editor and reload after doing some changes.
    4746* Or create a style from scratch and add it in the JOSM mappaint preferences.
    4847
    4948JOSM supports styles in the MapCSS format. It is a style language similar to [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cascading_Style_Sheets CSS] originally developed for Potlatch 2.
    5049 * General information can be found in the [osmwiki:Category:MapCSS osm wiki].
    51  * A [wiki:Help/Styles/MapCSSTutorial Short tutorial] should get you started.
    52  * The [wiki:Help/Styles/MapCSSImplementation JOSM implementation reference] lists the supported features in more detail.

     51 * The [wikitr:/Help/Styles/MapCSSImplementation JOSM implementation reference] lists the supported features in more detail.
    5352
    5453== Make your style available to other users ==
    55 * Either create a wiki page similar to [[Styles/Modified]].
    56  * don't forget to enclose your mappaint code by a code block (`#!style type="mapcss"` needs to be on a new line after `{{{`):
    57   * `{{{`
    58   * `#!style type="mapcss"`
    59   * ...
    60   * `}}}`
    61  * for automatic version adjustment you should use two internal variables:
    62   * {{{[[revision]]}}} - is the latest version number of the wiki page
    63   * {{{[[date]]}}} - is the date of the last edit
    64   * e.g. {{{"1.[[revision]]_[[date]]"}}} converts to e.g. {{{1.13_2014-02-24}}}
     54* Either create a wiki page similar to [wiki:Styles/Modified].
     55 I. go to [wiki:Styles/MyStyleName https://josm.openstreetmap.de/wiki/Styles/MyStyleName]
     56  A. change the URL so it matches the name of your style; change only the last part after `...Styles/`, (preferred is CamelCase)
     57  a. press `Enter` after adjusting the name
     58 1. don't forget to enclose your mappaint code by a code block (`#!style type="mapcss"` needs to be on a **new line** after `{{{`):
     59  1. `{{{`
     60  1. `#!style type="mapcss"`
     61  1. ...
     62  1. `}}}`
     63 1. for automatic version adjustment you have to use `[[revision]]_[[date]]` in your version variable:
     64  * `[[revision]]` - is the latest version number of the wiki page
     65  * `[[date]]` - is the date of the last edit of the wiki page
     66  * recommended usage: `version="1.[[revision]]_[[date]]"` (converts to e.g. `1.13_2019-02-24`)
     67  * this is required for an automatic update within JOSM
    6568 * **Note**: Spam filter prohibits adding many external (icon) links. Please, if possible, attach icons to the wiki page ([#Iconhandling see below]). …
    6669* '''or''' edit the page StylesSource and add URLs for new style files to the list at the top. (JOSM wiki based Styles (see above) is the preferred method.)
     
    6871In both cases, the new style will be automatically listed in the table above after a few minutes. Then it will also be available in the JOSM mappaint preferences (after clicking the reload button).
    6972
    70 == Icons
    71 .png and .svg files are supported.
     73== Icons ==#Icons
     74`.png` and `.svg` files are supported. See [wikitr:/DevelopersGuide/DefaultPresets#NewIcons Defaultpresets New Icons] for details and problems with `.svg`
    7275
    73 === Icon handling ===
     76=== Icon testing ===
     77Icons can be tested with the [wikitr:/Styles/IconTester icon tester].
     78
     79=== Icon handling === #Iconhandling
    7480There are different forms to handle icons:
    7581
    76 * Icons distributed with JOSM can be entered directly with the path (relative to JOSM's internal image directory).
     82* Icons distributed with JOSM can be entered directly with the path (relative to JOSM's [source:/trunk/resources/images internal image directory]).
    7783* Use a path relative to your local style file. (This works only for Styles, not for Presets.)
    78 * Use a path relative to a directory specified at the bottom in the [wiki:Help/Preferences/Map#MapPaintStyles Styles preferences page] or [wiki:Help/Preferences/Map#TaggingPresets Presets preferences page].)
    79 * New icons can be directly referenced using a http-link. These are downloaded and cached internally.
     84* Use a path relative to a directory specified at the bottom in the [wikitr:/Help/Preferences/MapPaintPreference Map Paint Styles preferences] or [wikitr:/Help/Preferences/TaggingPresetPreference Tagging Presets preferences].)
     85* New icons can be directly referenced using a https- or http-link. These are downloaded and cached internally.
    8086* zip files are supported too.
    8187 * The zip file must contain at least one file with extension mapcss (for styles) or xml (for presets).
    8288 * Icon names and path are relative to the topmost zip directory.
    8389 * If there are multiple files, a file with "style" in the name is preferred (to allow packaging styles and presets in one archive).
    84 * Inline encoding as described in [[http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2397|RFC 2397]] is supported too.
    85  * Example for PNG: {{{data:image/png;base64,...databytes...}}}
    86  * Example for SVG: {{{data:image/svg+xml;base64,...databytes...}}}
    87  * [wiki:Help/Base64 More information] about {{{data:image/...}}} in JOSM.
    88 * When the JOSM wiki is used for designing of new styles you have some additional options:
     90* Inline encoding as described in [https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2397 RFC 2397] is supported too.
     91 * Example for PNG: `data:image/png;base64,...databytes...`
     92 * Example for SVG: `data:image/svg+xml;base64,...databytes...`
     93 * [wikitr:/Help/Base64 More information] about `data:image/...` in JOSM.
     94* When the JOSM wiki is used for designing of new styles or presets you have some additional options:
    8995 * Each file attached to the wiki page is automatically included in the zip file downloaded by JOSM.
    9096 * If you don't want a file in the zip file, add the text **(NOZIP)** in the description of the attachment.
    9197 * If you add a zip file and want its contents included, you may add **(EXTRACT)** in the description of the attachment.
     98* Empty image paths are not allowed.
    9299
     100== Translation ==
     101Styles, Rules, Presets and Plugins use the same translation mechanism as JOSM core. The files must be delivered as Zip and contain a directory called `data` with the .lang files.
     102To create these files there exist scripts in the SVN directory [source:osm/applications/editors/josm/i18n/ i18n].
     103See also [wikitr:/Translations#Software software translation section] in translation documentation.
    93104
    94105== Updating styles in JOSM ==
    95 Once a style was updated in the Wiki it takes up to 10 days until the style gets updated in JOSM automatically. To immediately force an update you can do the following steps:
    96 * Open the [wiki:Help/Action/Preferences Preferences]
    97 * Make sure [wiki:Help/ExpertMode Expert Mode] is enabled
    98 * Open the [wiki:Help/Preferences/Advanced Advanced Preferences]
    99 * Search for keys starting with: `mirror.https://josm.openstreetmap.de/josmfile?page_Styles/`
     106Once a style was updated in the wiki (or another external source) it takes up to 10 days until the style gets updated in JOSM automatically (#8933). To immediately force an update you can do the following steps:
     107* Open the [wikitr:/Help/Action/Preferences Preferences]
     108* Make sure [wikitr:/Help/ExpertMode Expert mode] is enabled
     109* Open the [wikitr:/Help/Preferences/Advanced Advanced Preferences]
     110* Search for keys starting with: `mirror.https://josm.openstreetmap.de/josmfile?page_Styles/` (or `mirror.` for other external sources)
    100111* Select the style you want to update
    101112* Click on Reset at the bottom of the window
     
    103114* Restart JOSM
    104115
     116or:
     117
     118* Remove the content of your [wikitr:/Help/Action/About#InstallationDetails <josm.cache>] folder
     119* Restart JOSM
     120
    105121To check the version of the style in JOSM do the following steps
    106 * Open the [wiki:Help/Dialog/MapPaint Map Paint Styles Dialog]
     122* Open the [wikitr:/Help/Dialog/MapPaint Map Paint Styles Dialog]
    107123* Right click on a style
    108124* Choose Info
     
    115131
    116132== Rendering ==
    117 Mappaint renders the map data so it looks much more like a map (colors, icons, annotations, ...) - compared to the JOSM wireframe mode.

    118134
    119135=== Nodes ===
    120 Most nodes that correspond to tags in the [osmwiki:Map_Features Map Features] page will show an appropriate icon, e.g. a white "P" on blue ground for {{{amenity=parking}}}.
     136Most nodes that correspond to tags in the [osmwiki:Map_Features Map Features] page will show an appropriate icon, e.g. a white "P" on blue ground for `amenity=parking`.
    121137
    122138There are some special icons for missing/incomplete things:
    123139
    124 [[Image(Mappaint_no_icon.png)]] missing icon[[br]]
    125 We don't have the right icon for every node tag in map features yet, e.g. icons for most {{{natural=*}}} tags are still missing. If you encounter such a "missing icon", feel free to create a nice 16*16 pixel icon that matches the tag. To submit your work, open a [/newticket new ticket] and add your image or zip archive as attachment.

    127 [[Image(Mappaint_deprecated.png)]] warning icon[[br]]
    128 The corresponding tag was once used but is no longer recommended to be used - or - it is not suitable for a node, e.g. {{{highway=motorway}}} just doesn't make sense on a node. Probably not all deprecated tags will show this icon.

    137 == Advanced Preferences ==
    138 Some styles may have options. They are available via a right click (context menu) on the style's entry inside the [Help/Dialog/MapPaint map paint style dialog] window. E.g. JOSM's current default map style (MapCSS) has the option to display nodes at low zoom levels "less obtrusive" (enabled by default).
