Although I perfectly understand your need and the logic, this is much better served with tagging.
There are not enough categories in the world to give a fine grained selection mechanism. Because then you also want a category for sites with barbecue pits, another one for sites with hot showers. The possibilities are indeed endless. Tagging a POI allows you to add a cross-cutting interest, without framing the POI in one specific, clumsy characteristic. -CP Op 29-05-2020 om 23:13 schreef David: > Thank you so much. > I realy love what you are doing with the poi function. > When you fix the group color default, it would also be great to be able to > set a default group icon (and dare i ask a default group shape). > > As an illustration: > I travel extensively in a motorhome and use poi groups to mark all usefull > places.
