Opening individual tracks from openstreetmap.org/user/<Username>/traces/

[Aun Johnsen <lists@…>]

When opening the edit link from the trace page, I am bounced by the OSM map page to JOSM (default editor), where JOSM downloads the area, but the link has an additional gpx=* argument with the ID of the trace in OSM database. Would be good if JOSM could download this trace and make it visible as well, as that is actually why I push that button.

Currently I think only iD respond with loading that individual trace.

Example URL: ​http://www.openstreetmap.org/edit?gpx=2277313#map=14/-20.7321/-40.5328

This requires a change in ​https://github.com/openstreetmap/openstreetmap-website as well since opening ​http://www.openstreetmap.org/edit?gpx=2277313#map=14/-20.7321/-40.5328 calls the remote control with /load_and_zoom?left=-40.58428273925782&top=-20.689704547643732&right=-40.481257574462894&bottom=-20.774431808852707 (note: no gpx info present).

What we can do right away is to enhance the Help/Action/OpenLocation to support …

Could you make it also work for ​​http://www.openstreetmap.org/edit?gpx=2277313#map=14/-20.7321/-40.5328 (with the #map=14/-20.7321/-40.5328 part) since this is the format the osm website provides?

Let's track the remote control aspect in #13788. In this ticket we added support for "Open Location", which will be available in the 16.10 release.
