[OSM-dev] JOSM Duplicate Way Plugin

[Brent Easton]

Hi All

I have finished the first cut of my Duplicate-Way plugin, a tool to help created divided ways. Can anyone interested give it a quick test and confirm that it works for you before I release it into the wild? It works with the latest JOSM, but should work with 1.5 or even 1.4.

You can download it from http://home.exetel.com.au/swampwallaby/Duplicate-Way.jar 

Select an ordered way, select the 'Duplicate Way' option, then click on the map the distance from the way you want the new way to be. Voila, a new way, offset by the required amount, in the opposite direction with the tags duplicated.

At this stage, I make no attempt to join up end points or handle cross roads, I plan to handle these with pop-up dialogs, similiar to the 'Combine Way' option.

Feedback appreciated,

Imi, could you please let me know what I need access wise to set this up in SVN?

Cheers,
Brent.
