[OSM-talk] cannot enter new items in josm - bug?
hi, I have the latest josm on my mac osx 10.4. Am having problems entering items. Say I want to add a name. I click add, and enter 'name' as key. For value there is a dropdown box with suggested values. Say I want to add 'church road'. I type 'c' and then 'h', the 'c' vanishes and is replaced with the 'h', and so on. Sometimes I can get away by taking another value starting with 'c' from the drop down list, but if there is no value starting with 'c', I have to go to potlatch to add the value. This also happens with keys. If the key 'junction' exists in the part of the map I am editing, I can add 'junction' as a key - but if it doesnt, I have to add the first junction in potlatch and the subsequent ones can be added in josm. Any ideas? Is it something to do with my settings? -- regards Kenneth Gonsalves Associate, NRC-FOSS [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://nrcfosshelpline.in/code/ ___ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk

When I typed a character it was remaining highlighted so typing another character would replace it giving the appearance that the field was limited to 1 character. Clicking with the mouse to force the cursor after the first character seems to solve it for me at the time.
