How do I show overlapping areas?
Hello, first set of edits, and first question.
I'm using JOSM as I couldn't get Potlatch to run.
I have a school who's grounds extend into into some woods, the school fence runs through the woods, and it has some outdoor classrooms and woodland trails inside those fenced off parts of the woods. The rest of the woods are common and people can walk anywhere, but the school fence denotes private land. So it seems to me the ideal would be to be able to draw the woodlands and the school overlapping. However when I do that, one or the other is displayed on top, and the other is not visible underneath. Is there some way to do this?
If not, what is the best/standard way to represent it?
EDIT: I didn't want to swamp this question, so I would like to recommend that people read all the answers below, it's very interesting.
