Article Comment: ExplorOz Traveller

Thread 136811 prompts a suggestion for Traveller.

Could you place a cursor in the middle of the screen so that when scrolling the map the lat and long at the cursor is displayed? Ie, similar to OziExplorer for Android.

And then make it so that you can drop a pin at that cursor position without having to touch the screen to get the "drop point". That would make it really easy to find a location and set a Place if necessary when the only info you have is lat/long.

EDIT:
It's just been pointed out in the thread that the lat/long in the save place dialogue is editable, so that addresses the OP's question in the thread.

Any chance you can make the Position Display Format in Settings flow through the whole app, so that the coordinates in the save place dialogue and elsewhere could be in the user's preferred format?

I still like the idea of the coordinates being updated and displayed as you scroll the map with the ability to drop a pin at the cursor - that would be a nice tweak.

Cheers
