Location sharing
I'd like to be able to mark a point on the map to share a location either by coordinates or a link to openstreetmap.org
I can add "view in external geo app" that opens a geo-uri that is compatible with many other android geo aware apps.
I will not implement openstreetmap-web url support so you need to find someone that can implement this for you based on this new feature. For details see https://github.com/k3b/k3b-geoHelper/wiki/Android-Geo-howto.
Since this is a hobby project don-t expect this to be implemented before end of march
It would be a good feature. At the moment, to set a location for e.g. fake gps, I have to copy and paste N and E separately.
Perhaps for convenience they could be shown as 0.00000,0.00000 for easy copy and paste rather than as two fields.
It is surprising how few (if any) map apps (other than the Mountain View offering) can simply share an arbitrary location, which is odd given the number of times I have wanted to pick a location from a map and text it at someone, like "Here is where the gold is: 50.00003,-0,00001". If LMV could even have easy copy and paste, I could feed it to MockMyGPS, and use Location Share to create more normal human usable output.
I'll climb back under my rock for a while now :-D
