OK, this must have to do with the "Allow All Drives" feature. What does it do? When I click on it, it seems to select many random segments, and it's not clear what it does with them.

I am just testing, but It looks like it simply allows all directions on the segments you are viewing, that means changing all the one-way drives onto two-way drives
Checking the segment list before pushing the button is mandatory. :lol:

I couldn't get the segment list to come up when I tried it in Chrome. It did select some one-way segments, but not all.

But now I'm looking at 1.5.2 and see the new "accelerate edition" option. Cute. :roll:

OK, tried it in FF. It seems that it's designed to remove all turn restrictions from the viewing area. This is not a good idea at all!

Someone earlier noted that the FF version is working much more predictably than Chrome. I confirmed that with the latest FF version 12 and the latest Extended Tools (many problems with Chrome and no significant ones with FF).

Only on non-locked and non-roundabout segments .

This tools is designed to clean up no-Wazer-land.
If you edit a region alredy edited, don't use.

Choose your tools according to your needs.

Most of the plugin fits this assessment and is most definitely too easy to get hold of.

But it could still behave (more) deterministically, like touching just selected segments, or these listed in the Segment list (whereas there already multiple ways, how to choose these segments).

The enlarged editing area is an excellent goodie. There is just one issue with the Full screen enlargement.
  • If the left Properties pane is open while pressing Full screen, the editing area is maximized and the most of the Properties pane gets lost out of the browser's left hand border and can not be controlled (with its open/close arrow) anymore.
  • If the Properties pane is closed while pressing Full screen, the pane's open/close arrow is still visible and pressing it controls also the editing area width. The Properties pane keeps visible.
In the first case, the editing area should be immediately narrowed a bit too.

No, I realize that. I understand exactly what it's designed for. And I can think of a few situations where it would be very useful for me. I'm only thinking about how BAD this could be in the hands of someone who doesn't know what he's doing, or (worse) doesn't care and is only looking for points.

The power to turn every unlocked street into a 2-way and eliminate all turn restrictions in the current view is too dangerous. Do you know how much time it takes to find out which streets are one way in a city? If someone using this tool just decides to change all of them to two-way, it takes a few seconds. Then when I go back in and fix them, and reset the turns at every intersection along the one-ways, it will take hours.

Please disable this feature! Or find a way to limit the users who have access to it!
