Closed URs and MPs are visually differentiated by being green. I brought up the need for a filter in beta, as noted earlier in the thread.
Ugh! I have red/green color blindness and I am having a hard time differentiating them.
I didn't see that I replied to this with the bug tracking: https://bugs.waze.com/show_bug.cgi?id=6743

Ohad mentioned (maybe in email) that they need to get the new format set. They hadn't decided how to render a NI closed UR with comments yet.

sketch wrote:By the way, in case you missed it — it isn't in the release notes — the new layer selector also contains a Reload map data button, with the keyboard shortcut Alt-Shift-R.

This is particularly useful for collaborative editing, allowing you to reload the layers without reloading the editor, thereby keeping your chat history and so forth.
Is anyone else finding this to be buggy? I often will visit someone via chat jump and when I get there, I can only select junctions and landmarks, but not segments. Refreshing doesn't work for me then.

Are you talking about a plugin? Because I'm not aware of a popup which appears in this manner.

I have noticed that several times, when I was attempting to make such a connection, it 'felt like' it had snapped into place and connected but there was no connection made.
The most typical situation when a junction isn't created is when a single segment is drawn which connects to the same segment at both ends. The A junction is not created in this case. It has always been like this, and is because we and Waze don't recommend a 2-segment loop for various reasons.

I've also seen this often when someone tries to junction a new segment, usually a parking lot road, to a segment they don't have sufficient rank to edit.

I don't usually update this kind of detail, but here's the bugs which Waze has confirmed and will be fixing. No idea what version these may be addressed in:

In progress
Junction Object or Box

Confirmed
Clearer message when failing to connect a segment to a higher level locked one
The letter б doesn’t work
Solved UR and MP icons needs to be color-blind friendly
Ability to hide closed Map Problems and Update Requests
Permalink incorrectly contains update request variable when it shouldn't
Permalink should contain update request or map problem variable
Esc key should dismiss/cancel 'new roundabout' mode

You can also browse the most recently-submitted bugs yourself to see their status.
