I created a Preset for JOSM (version 7777) that includes the following lines:

A. <text key="description" text="Description" default="" delete_if_empty="true" rows="3"/> B. <multiselect key="amenity" delimiter="," text="Amenity" values="restaurant,bar" default="" delete_if_empty="true" rows="3"/>

A. always gives 1 row, B. always 8, whatever value I use in rows.

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks

Where did you learn about the rows attribute ? I cannot find an example in the default JOSM presets. AFAIK the UI for a description is a text box with 1 line, never seen one with multiple lines.

Perhaps those numbers cannot be changed.

rows is only valid for <multiselect> so only B. should work. See Tagging Presets

If not please fill a bug. Was fixed see https://josm.openstreetmap.de/ticket/10941

By the way, be careful with changing the delimiter from default semi-colon. It is only useful in special cases and the delimiter will be used also in the value if more than one is used.

The rows attribute doesn't seem to occur anywhere in the presets xml template definition (linked from here).

Documentation is now in the JOSM wiki under Tagging Presets and rows does exist for quite some time now.
