Until there's a logical, common sense way to select, split, continue &

As a power user, I found these operations a lot less frustrating after 
discovering that selecting a way, holding down Shift, and selecting the 
intersecting node limits the split, disconnection, or extension to just 
that way.



And why the delete key isn't utilized is beyond me. Leaving out basic
functionality doesn't make iD easier to use.


Press Ctrl+Del or Ctrl+Backspace to delete the selected feature. The 
modifier key was added [1] in response to complaints that iD was making 
it too easy to delete stuff. [2]


FWIW, the wiki has a full list of shortcuts. [3]

Re: [OSM-talk] Query Overpass for multiple small areas

2015-03-29 Thread Bryce Nesbitt
Don't worry about the size of the query box.
Focus instead on keeping the number of nodes and query time reasonable.

Overpass is perfectly happy doing continent or world-wide queries: and it's
usually quite fast.
Note that the web client bogs down with more than a few hundred results, but
if you load straight into JOSM or a script, you can get many more.

Non-square bounding boxes seem to be slower than square ones.

Yup, exactly, I was running many small queries in parallel.  Aggregating
them into one query resolved it.  If the query bbox grows too big--right
now looking at ~60% of the DRC, but will need to expand the query to run
across all of the Congo Basin--then I'll divide into country-sized queries
but be sure not to run them simultaneously.
