Thanks, Samuel With the new version: click anywhere you want to go to on the map, this will bring up menu, choose Actions and then you will see the coordinates of the selected point.

If you have searchable OSM maps, or MG maps, you can also : - touch scren - touch action - touch town Now you are able to search for a town. You should have the country flag in the upper left corner. If you have a cross (meaning your country isn't auto-detected) or if you have the wrong country, touch the flag and you'll be able to search for a country. Once you have a town, touching it will bring a submenu (destination, view on map, search street). If you touch the green tick on the upper right corner, it will bring you directly to the street search.

I have one of the prebuilt planet.bin files and I can successfully (well, somewhat) search for towns, etc. However, I also downloaded 2 other smaller binary maps files from http://maps.navit-project.org/download/ and there seems to be no searchable town data in those files, or at least Navit doesn't find any when I try to search a town. The only one it finds is some place called Matei when I enter an M. Sorry if this is somewhere on the Navit site, I ddin't see it.

Don't worry, documentation needs a big cleanup and expand :) In what countries are those maps? I have 3 binary-type map files. The planet map files is from Sept. 28, 2008 (planet-080928.bin). I downloaded it from http://maps.navit-project.org/ a few months ago. The other two maps I downloaded just a few days ago using the Planet extract tool at http://maps.navit-project.org/download/. For one of them I made a box around the entire United States, and for the other I made a box around the entire state of Florida (U.S.). The prebuilt planet file seems to have searchable city/street data, but the two I downloaded via the Planet Extract tool don't seem to have any searchable data. There are two reasons that I really want to reduce the size of the map files. First, searching is somewhat slow for the entire planet. :-) Second, since the search results for the data don't indicate state/district, I may get dozens of towns by the same name and have no way of knowing which state it's in. The view on map option, besides being tedious, doesn't seem to work as I would expect. It shows the map for a few seconds then returns to the main map and I have to start all over again, and the map it did show for a few seconds was at a zoom-level at which I couldn't tell what I was looking at.
