[OSM-newbies] copy and paste motorway

[mclay]

Hi David,

Thank you for the pointer.  But I have another stupid question.  How do I
paste the copied line next to the original line.  I am using JOSM.  The
command window indicates a paste occurred but I have no idea where it is in
the main window.  I've selected the node I would like the copied line to
connect to but that doesn't seem to do anything.

Thanks for the help.
Mui
