Some of the important default buttons:

• Open
• Save

• Upload to OSM
• Undo

Configuration

You can change the buttons in the main toolbar by right clicking on it and choosing "Configure toolbar". You can add all items from the Main Menu (Actions, Presets, Presetgroups, Separators,...).

The Search button is a special button. It is customizable so you can set the tooltip, the icon and the search expression yourself. Each time you press the button, the specified search expression will be executed. Examples:

• If you set amenity=bench as searchExpression all objects with the tag amenity=bench will be selected.
• If you set -selected as searchExpression, the selection will invert each time you press the button.
• More examples see Search
