Hi Nick,

This works for me. A quick How to would be great!

Thanks very much,
Orla

Subject: Re: [HOT] Bounding box not in iD Editor anymore


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


Nick

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

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. 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
