How to stop drawing a way in Potlatch?

3

I started Potlatch to add two streets. I started to draw the first one. But how do I stop drawing it so I can start with my other street?

I have read the shortcuts and tried with Enter, Esc, C, Space and I also tried to click on the last point. But none of them stop the drawing. (I still have a dashed line from the last point to my mouse pointer)

Enter, Esc and clicking on the last point all worked for me just. I didn't try C to close the changeset (which would have saved the other three ways I created to test I think). Space doesn't seem to do anything.

Thanks, it works for me now. It must have been something strange with the focus in my browser.
