Hi,

A quick but dirty workaround


1. Load task in iD

2. return to Task on TM, go back to 'edit with' and select JOSM

3. You will get an error message about JOSM remote control, but it will give you access to a section of the JOSM menu

4. From the section that reads "/Tip: Download the following .gpx file <http://tasks.hotosm.org/project/2442/task/211.gpx> and load it in JOSM in order to see the current task boundary" /right click on /".gpx file" /and select /"Save link as" -/ I put mine in my downloads folder. /
/

4. Back to the iD /tab in your browser, and have file manager open as well - drag & drop the downloaded .gpx file onto the window of ID -- then wait.../

5. If all goes well you now have the square on your iD screen./It took a while to load on my setup & a message about waiting or closing appeared - but it has loaded each time I've tried.
/

/I'll try to put together a quick howto with images on LearnOSM and make it downloadable. Feedback as to whether this works for everyone would be appreciated in case I have to make amendments./

Regards

Can confirm. Have noticed that the bounding box doesn't always display. Usually closing the tab and relaunching 1-2 times results in it appearing. If logs / javascript console output is useful for tracking down the issue, let me know and I'll share. :)

    Hi,

    Just to add in on this one, there are quite a lot of mapathons
    going on over the next few days, including a group of students in
    Botswana mapping from today for the next two weeks.

    @Bryan - I had noticed over the past few months that sometimes the
    pink box didn't load immediately when you loaded a square, and you
    needed to wait quite a while or reload the square to see it. Not
    sure if others had seen the same.

    Thanks,

    Rebecca

        That does look like a bug!   I will try to get a fix merged in
        by your event Wednesday…

        Hi everyone,
        I am unable to see the square bounding box in iD Editor when
        I lock and open a task/grid square
        e.g.http://tasks.hotosm.org/project/2477#task/58
        <http://tasks.hotosm.org/project/2477#task/58>. My
        understanding is that this bounding box enables the digitiser
        to ensure that they are working only in their grid square so
        that they can mark it as done in the Tasking Manager.
        Has this been removed with a recent update of iD Editor? Will
        this functionality be added again?
        We have a mapathon organised for Wednesday with all beginners
        and it will be much more difficult to coordinate our progress
        without this bounding box in iD Editor.
        Thanks very much,
        Orla
