Hi Will,
In the Mapnik mapcss style in JOSM, I see the following block where the font is
defined. You could apply this to all nodes and try to put font size = 0.
node|z2-3[place=country] {
font-family: "DejaVu Sans Book";
font-size: 8;
text: "name";
text-color: #9d6c9d;
text
I'm wondering where are the default style settings stored for josm. Using
all of the map paint styles filter on the right-hand side of the screen,
I've turned off all of my map styling, including josm's internal style.
I ask because I'm trying to style so that name=* tag on a node does not
display
