I tested JOSM for editing OpenStreetMap data. But the application has a black background and I would prefer a white or at least lighter background. Is there any setting where I can change to a white or lighter background (and the other colors)? asked 16 Sep '11, 16:11 Jonas_ |
Edit -> Preferences -> Display Settings -> Colors tab -> "background" table entry. Or, add a line with

JOSM now also supports MapCSS, so you can customise the appearance of the map that way. The latest builds come with the Potlatch 2 stylesheet.

Thanks! But it had been nice if JOSM had a built-in light color theme, so users could switch to that if needed (e.g. for usability).

I meet the case where all layers are transparent and one uses black, hence invisible, lines. I suppose it's possible to have a blank layer serve as non-black background. Unfortunately, the blank layer is black too. Is there a way to configure and save a non-black blank layer? How does one save a set of layers to be reloaded at startup? Please explain with enough details. Thanks. answered 09 Mar '12, 01:00 GentilPapou |
You can only change JOSM background, not that of a layer (an application on a server).
But you may be able to request the server a transparent layer.
If all the layers are transparent, the JOSM background is visible.
