Starting today I can no longer move nodes of a certain residential area (linked above). Other residential areas I can move nodes. When trying to edit it just shows a stop sign then snaps back on mouse button release.
thanks in advance
I can confirm that. The lines making up the outer of the multipolygon cannot be moved. The lines being inner behave normally. To why this happens I have no clue.
Are you using the iD editor? It was upgraded from 2.5.1 to 2.6.0 a couple of days ago. This may be intended behaviour, as some changes were made to prevent users doing silly things (like having a way cross itself without a node at the intersection) or it may be a bug.
Yes iD 2.6. There is no apparent reason why a user should not do these changes I tried. It works flawless in JOSM.
I suggest you raise the matter here: https://github.com/openstreetmap/iD/issues (you’ll need to create a github account to do it, if you don’t already have one). Then you’ll find out if it’s intentional (and why) or if it’s a bug.
thanks, I have reported on github https://github.com/openstreetmap/iD/issues/4741
