Toolbar ViewFind coordinates.png


Clicking this button opens a field where specific decimal coordinates can be entered.

(If you want to look for Minute-Second-coordinates, you will have to convert them to decimal coordinates first)

Clicking OK will set a marker on the map at these coordinates.

To delete the marker click on 'Clear Coordinates Marker' Clear Coordinates Marker.png

The numerals at the bottom right hand corner of the window represent the coordinates at the cursors current position.


Important Advice

  • The coordinates shown on the bottom right hand side of the map are in decimal degrees by default.
This can be changed here:
Options → General → Miscellaneous → double click on the unit shown on the right from 'Coordinate Display Format'.
  • Beware of correct punctuation when entering coordinates (xx.xxx, yy.yyy) for decimal degrees.
