[OHM] Problem importing into OHM from OSM

[SK53]

Hi Mark,

You need to copy the data to a new layer.


   - As it stands imported into JOSM this is an OSM object with
   identifiers, changeset ids and a history. OHM is a completely different
   system and as such the data is new. What you have tried to do is update
   non-existent data.
   - Copying into a new layer ensures that the ways are marked as new. This
   is described in the workflow on my City Stripping

   blog.
