By default, the map display shows the cursors position in decimal degrees since this is the prefered format for many GPS/GIS applications. However, there may be cases where you need to report coordinates as degrees minutes-seconds. To do so, go into you skins spatial configuration file (usually ${skin.dir}/spatial/config.xml) and edit the CursorTrack widget as shown below:
|
|
| 218 |
<pre> |
|
| 219 |
<CursorTrack id="cursorTrack"> |
|
| 220 |
<mouseHandler>mainMap</mouseHandler> |
|
| 221 |
<showDMS>true</showDMS> |
|
| 222 |
<showLatLong>true</showLatLong> |
|
| 223 |
</CursorTrack> |
