It doesn't - well, not explicitly. I did wonder about automatically creating crossing nodes, but then you'd have all sorts of palaver about "well, if this is a river then it should intersect with other rivers, but if it's a road it shouldn't - well, unless there's a ford, but...". Rather, it creates the way as a "locked" way; it explicitly won't be uploaded, even when you click Save, until you've unlocked it. This is indicated with a bright red drawing rather than any other styling. The docs then duly explain that you should tidy the way by tagging, adding intersections, removing zigzags etc. before unlocking and uploading. If you don't read the docs, you won't know how to unlock the way anyway. ;) cheers Richard _______________________________________________ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/listinfo/talk
