 +  * **Formula**: same rules apply as discussed in previous sections. Additionally there is a "special" coordinate tag ''(F-PLAIN)'' which can be used to specify a formula in the ''plain''-format. Cache-listings often contains already formulas in this format. You can specify any already known value for the variables separate by the ''|''-symbol. \\ The syntax of the formula must satisfy the criterias as described in [[en:coordinatedialog#using_plain_coordinate_format|Using Plain Coordinate Format]]. \\ If you can determine the values for the variables only step by step, it is recommended to enable ''Prevent waypoints extraction'' until you have entered all variables in the personal note. Then the waypoint can be created with all values and the coordinates are calculated.
