Hello

Since the new update I'm experiencing some problems when I want to edit. When zoomed in, I select a street that I want to edit. Unfortunately the left editor area doesn't say "one segment selected" (including all editable information) like it should be. It keeps saying "hello stijnley, you are level 1 editor......."

When I zoom out and select the same street, I can edit a few minutes after zooming back in. But the problem keeps coming back when selecting a nearby street.

Can someone help me out?

Thank you!

Hoping this isn't just me, but I've just found that (amusingly) the AM layer shows me watermarked in my area but the cones/editor-level have now demoted me to Level 3 from a Level 4. Here's some before and after screenshots:

I read the first post. Are you referring to this:
old rank 0 = 1 cone
old rank1 = 2 cones (currently not in use)
old rank 2 = 3 cones
old rank 3 = 4 cones
old rank 4 = 5 cones
old rank 5 = 6 cones (currently not in use)
old rank 6 = STAFF
I don't understand how my old rank (being 4) is showing 3 cones and not 5 then.

Okay, got it. This Editing Ranks page needs an update from somebody perhaps.

Am I the only one not seeing any Update Requests in my area (and after scrolling around a bit, any at all)? Yes, the UR layer is on (and I've tried toggling it on/off as well as giving it a bit of lag time, just for good measure).

There's a script that will highlight unterminated roads when not selected (see sig) (AMs only)

So it seems. Does this mean that landmarks will become searchable items?

EDIT: Is URO the Overview script that puts them on the livemap?
It is this: http://www.waze.com/forum/viewtopic.php ... UROverview
Actually, it's not. This is the droid your are looking for --> http://www.waze.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=29381
(The first one gives you popups for URs in the editor, the second adds UR markers to the Livemap)
