====== Coordinate input dialog ======

{{:en:coordinput.png?direct&300 |}}

The coordinate input dialog is opened if you tap on the coordinate field while editing a [[cachedetails#waypoint_tab|waypoint]] or for entering coordinates in the [[.mainmenu:search|search]] or [[.mainmenu:goto|Go to]] menus.

The {{:ic_menu_cancel.svg?nolink&30|}} button will close the dialog without changes, the {{:ic_menu_done.svg?nolink&30|}} will close the dialog and save the changes.

<WRAP center round tip 60%>
Be sure to save the changes especially when using the waypoint calculator as no valid coordinates might be shown, but you still want to save the recent changes you made in the calculator.
