Description (last modified by )
I whish the JOSM team good luck in the new year and I wish... to have some tools to aid node placement.
- enter nodes longitude and latitude by hand
- place a node at a specified distance and azimuth from another node
- place a node(s) at specified distance from a way (this could help for #67). One selects a way, some nodes and, either, enters the distance in the dialog (I prefere this), or the distance is taken from one (which?) of nodes. Then every node is moved along a line between it and the way and transversal to the selected way.
- align three nodes in line but, shift one of the outers not the inner one, so one can elongate already existing way, preserving its direction.
With this set of tools I think it should be possible to draw quite accurately with only masurement tape and few gps points. Think about drawing buildings' outlines.

It's already possible to add nodes with coordinates. wiki:Help/Action/AddNode

Does the function to enter nodes with lat/lon also solve the requirements of #7975?
JOSM is a great tool! In the area of drawingtools though, great progress could be made. Maybe JOSM could profit from some kind of OpenSource Java 2D-CAD project somewhere...
