A red arrow displayed on map #3853

Author: TomH I have no idea where that arrow is coming from - it's not present when I look at the map in that area so your browser must be adding it for some reason. It looks like the arrow you get when you click on a search result so my guess is that you have searched for something in that area? If all else fails try deleting your OSM cookies. There's no bug here that I can see anyway, and it certainly isn't any sort of attempt to tell you about a problem with your data. |

After logging in through other browser (Chrome vs. IE) I've noticed the red diamond-shaped "my home position" (surrounded by the green "nearby mappers"' positions) also pointing to approx. the same place. I've shifted it a bit and will later report, if I see the red arrow being shifted too.

Now I see my "home-centered" map view with the red arrow, pointing to exactly the same point, where I've shifted the red diamond-shaped "my home position". (I guess it is not important at all, why does the arrow occasionally appear. So the case can be now forgotten.) |

Since a few days I can see a thick short red arrow on basic OSM map, pointing to place where I've put two
amenity=benchpoints [http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/node/1331554285 1331554285, v1] and [http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/node/1331554282 1331554282, v2] (I'm not sure if the arrow points to any particular of them - the resolution is not sufficient) of total four such points placed in the vicinity (changeset [http://www.openstreetmap.org/browse/changeset/8489815 8489815]).I'm not able to find out anything suspicious on these two POIs (if the arrow should be suggesting that) - whether they are too close to one another? Otherwise I assume all four would be marked as such.
Could such warning be additionally placed in understandable text form on the *Changeset''
's page, nearby the mentioned ''Point''(s) or ''Way''(s) (and if so, also summarized somewhere nearby the ''Tags*' area)?The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:
