Navigation question

I didn't know that, it will be useful instead of going to configuration. You never stop learning with Ozi.

Hi

Changing the displayed coordinate format is easy enough anyway - you dont have to go into configuration - just right click on the coordinate readout on the top left of screen in Oziexplorer and the three options will be listed - click the one you want. Takes one second.

Didn't know that either. Thanks..

Thanks Greg, just goes to show, you can learn something new every day.

Cheers

You are a Scholar and a Gentleman, Greg. THANK YOU!!

And thank you too for that coords display shortcut. Super helpful,

And if you really need to enter say 0.912 minutes (not decimal degrees) then you must include the zero for it to be correctly read as minutes.

Hi

No need for that in OziExplorer in this instance. Even though the box is labelled with minutes.m all Gaynor has to do is include the decimal point at the begining of the numbers (as described in my previous post) and the program (OziExplorer) will recognise it as decimal degrees. It will convert and plot the point in the correct position automatically - no need to do any conversions yourself.

In a general sense (to cover all bases) you are correct though - pays to know what format you are using and match it when entering data to prevent errors - not all programs are as cleaver as Oziexplorer in this regard.
