[TrickyFoxy]

You may have already seen my announcements in my diary (1, 2, 3), but just in case, I’ll show you what this script can do:

Tags diff in object history

QuickLook for simple changesets

Improved history tab

Hotkeys

show

• < > for user changesets
• N — on/off notes layer
• D — on/off Map Data layer
• G — on/off GPS tracks layer
• S — on/off satellite layer (Firefox only)
• H — open object history
• 1 — open first version of object
• Z — zoom to changeset/object bbox
• E — Open editor
• 8/9 — prev/next map position
• O— open OSMCha
• shift + O — open Achavi
• shift + L — go to your position

Turning off map diming and night mode for the map

p.s. It is disabled by default, to enable it, click on the extension icon→Settings→Select option→Save

Big appreciation from my side I’m using your script some weeks now and don’t want to miss it! Thank you

Wow, looks like some really useful features. I have to see how this changes my workflow.

I have one question about settings. How to enable/disable the dark mode of the map? Using Firefox on Linux with Violentmonkey, I do not find the settings. Probably I am just too dumb or blind. Would someone please point me to the script settings, please. Thanks a lot.

Never mind I found them. The script was working without the need to enable it manually, but the settings were disabled.

The script was working without the need to enable it manually, but the settings were disabled.

This is strange… By default, the script should not change the dark theme in any way.

Just in case, I’ll add screenshots of where to find the settings:

Thanks for making this - I’ve been using it for about a month, and I’m really grateful! I find the changeset diff features very useful.

Apparently, it did. E.g. all the extra buttons and highlighted changes in CSs and object history tabs were present but the settings were missing. Though, I cannot reproduce it anymore.

Anyway, it is working now and I use it a lot. Many thanks,
