Hi

As Martin suggested at the German mailing list
(http://lists.openstreetmap.org/pipermail/talk-de/2009-June/046791.html)
I post my question here:

Is there an option to disable moving complete ways in JOSM?

Background: Most of the time I like to add a new node (little cross
between 2 nodes) or move a node of a way. In 1 of 10 actions I
unintentionaly move the whole way. This is not realy a problem because
of the Undo-Function but it disturbing my workflow.
Also moving a complete way is a very rare action (in my normal daily
work). Most of the time I only move a groupe a nodes of a way because I
don't want to move the connection with other nodes.

Martin suggested to play with the setting "node.snap-distance" (I guess
this is what he meant) but this didn't work for me. I think this setting
will only affect real nodes, not the virtual (cross-)nodes. Is that correct?

Any idear how to easy solve my problem?
