make it easier to see object ids

[dieterdreist]

I think there would be space somewhere to show the object ids, right now if an object has a name the id is not so visible.

E.g. in the selection window, the ID could be shown after the name (in the regular non-bold font, to distinguish it).

Also in the title bar of the tags window, it could be added

Quite important it would also be in the upload window.

There is a checkbox for this somewhere in the settings, disabled by default.

Yep, 3rd checkbox in the Display tab, see Help/Preferences/Display.

Only place mentioned without the id is the title of the add tag dialog.

Do you mean the Tags/memberships panel? It is for editing, if you want to see the IDs of the objects, use the selection panel instead.

Replying to gaben:

Oh, I should have taken a look at the screenshots. I was thinking about dialogs beside the panels but dieterdreist is only talking about panels.

"worksforme" or "invalid"?

I think there was some point where you changed the default, because in the past I always saw the ids and from a certain point on, they were not shown any more. IMHO these should be visible by default.

If you need the IDs outside of JOSM, just select them, copy (CTRL-C) and paste them where you need them (like an editor). The result should be a list of "node/way/relation <id>".
