4. zoom in, camera reappears

If you delete the camera again, the save will fail (I believe the error is "some elements have been modified...").

This one has been around since Papyrus was first introduced. If you zoom out further than the level at which cameras appear, then zoom back in, all cameras that you've "deleted", but have yet to save, will reappear.

WME is extremely buggy. When will we see such issues fixed like new roads not forming nodes when connected to each other until you f**k with it a bunch and refresh the page, random "the thing you were working on has been edited" errors despite the changes going through successfully, "an error has occurred" errors for landmarks like water that were dragged over themselves, "an error has occurred" errors for anything else, no provinces or territories for Canada, city and road names that refuse to take until you re-save the current changes, ...

Is it possible to add a "gravel road" option? North America still has gravel roads that carry large amounts of rural traffic. I am currently labeling them streets because they are definitely more than "dirt roads/4x4 Trails," but they aren't really streets either. Anybody new to an area would be pretty disappointed to turn onto a "street" and find a miles-long system of gravel roads.

Problem: Editor forces SSL connection, but attempts to send data to http://marx.waze.com. This should cause a security warning on every browser, and in the case of Opera forces a notification to pop up every time data is sent.

Add a ton of junctions to the road so Waze routes round it ;)

Kidding. Sort of.

I have not been very active with editing in the last month, and have been waiting for someone else to mention the following issue.

With Chrome under Win 7, and even with Browsing, Cache, Cookies histories deleted, WME usually shows all verticle segments misaligned with their respective highlighted segments. (The example below which I edited back in February displayed fine back then.)
https://www.waze.com/editor/?zoom=7&lat ... 1,37274324

However I can return to Chrome at another time and the display will be correct.

This problem does not occur with FireFox, however the old problem with difficulty in selecting horizontal segments still does.

So editing all the east/west segments in Chrome, and switching to FireFox for all the north/south segments does not exactly encourage me to return to active editing again!

And the further out the zoom level, the worse the misalignment looks:

I've also got this problem, but only on one of my computers. The selected/edited segments are displaced from the road layer. Makes editing quite tricky sometimes.

I've never seen this one. Of course, once I got Chrome working, several months ago, I never had any problem with it again, other than occasional "Aw Snap" crashes, and I've learned to avoid those too.

There's got to be some kind of contributing factor to those users who are having these issues. So many variables though, it's going to be hard to track down.

Same here, it only happens on one of my computers. The computer that does it for me is running Vista, the Win 7 machine is fine.

That's it exactly: works fine for me on Win 7, but not on Vista (with Chrome).
