Level tagging

Button to add a new level to the layer. After pushing a new window will be opened. Now you can add the individual level number like 3, 5 or -2. After confirming the draw action () will be selected so you can start drawing your first object of the new level. After finishing please press the spacebar to tag the object (level tag only). Caution: this function is only to create the first object of a new level. After that the plugin will automatically tag new objects with the current working level value (via apply button).

A checkbox to deactivate the automatic level tagging after pushing the apply button. If you tick the checkbox there will be no more adding of level tags.

Indoor objects

A given list of objects which are often used for indoor mapping. For further information see ​indoorHelper.

Multipolygon adding

Caution: this function is only to add simple multipolygon relations.
The recommended order of editing is:

1. add outline member with outer button
2. add inner member with inner button.

How to add:

Step 1	Push the outer button to select the drawing action ()
Step 2	Draw the object and press the spacebar to add the multipolygon with role: outer
Step 3	Push the inner button to select the drawing action ()
Step 4	Draw the object and press the spacebar to finish the drawing. After that select the "outer"-object you want to add the "inner"-object to. If selected push enter to add the object with role: inner

If you want to add more than one "inner"-object skip step 1,2 and restart at step 3. To deactivate the multipolygon function of the plugin just tick the checkbox next to the inner button:

Apply button

Via apply button you can tag the currently selected object. Objects like ways or nodes will be tagged directly (insert to the list in tags/memberships panel above). If you tag a multipolygon tags will be insert to the whole relation.
