Two-step deletion of features with addresses #6103
Comments
This is a good idea 👍 |
I did this in 8779e1a. It works for points, vertices, and buildings. The icon and text make it clear that you're downgrading, but the keyboard shortcut is the same. You can delete immediately after downgrading if you so choose. |
Does this break the “delete a point” step of the walkthrough ? |
Oh good point. I just tested this and it does break if the user enters address data while editing the cafe, which they can. I'll fix it. |
Cool.. It would probably be easiest to silently delete whatever data needs to go away so the user can easily perform the delete step (instead of trying to rewrite the tutorial text - please don’t do this!) |
@bhousel Yep, that's what I'll do! |
…es due to downgrade operation (re: #6103)
Mappers should delete defunct points of interest, such as restaurants that go out of business. However, the address tags of these features are likely still valid for geocoding. We should encourage preservation of addresses by having two-step deletion of addressed features:
addr:*
and the preset is thus downgraded to "Address".The feature would remain selected after step 1, so totally deleting the feature could still be done quickly with just one extra keypress.
Ideally we should find a good place to explain this behavior.
