Tools to get clear understanding to which ways a node belongs to

0

Having a selected node in JOSM I'd like to get the list of all the ways to which it belongs to. How can I get it?

Ideally I'd like to have the item in such list which mouse cursor is hovering over to be hightlighted on the map.

Is there a special plugin providing such functionality or is there some editor other than JOSM which can do such things?

It's all for understading the relations of the node.

You can search for "parent selected" and interact with the ways in the selection box. This will also select any relations the node belongs to. You can restrict it to ways by searching for "parent selected type:way".

Place the mouse cursor over the node, then click the middle button: that should open a dialog showing information about the node and the ways that pass through it.
