Yep, already tried, as indicated, doesn't appear to work. Map keeps re-centering on current location, whether I want it to or not. Also a little odd that Osmand would use the term "autocenter" in some places, but then "Display position always in center" elsewhere, which serves only to confuse the user. Well, at least this one.
