Position in Swiss Grid coordinates CH 1903 in OruxMaps

Hi Orux

First of all thanks for that great App!

In Switzerland are all the map coordinates in the format of Swiss Grid CH 1903. Everybody and all Navigation system work with that format in Switzerland. Even the rescue teams, Police etc. use that format to describe a certain position.
Unfortunately there is no possibility to choose this coordinate format in Konfiguration/Einheiten/Koordinaten. The Swiss Grid CH 1903 format is very common in Switzerland. It would be great if one could configure that also in the excellent OruxMaps and use it together with the Mapplus Topo (CH) map. I saw already other posts where people were wishing that OruxMaps supports Swiss Grid CH 1903.

Example
Bern y=600000, x=200000 (Sidlerstr. 5, 3012 Bern, Universität Bern, exakte Wissenschaften. WGS84: 46.9510827861504654, 7.4386324175389165)

How to compute is described in Wikipedia...

Would it be possible to implement that?????

Many thanks in advance!

Best regards
Andres

tested with Oruxmaps 3.3.10beta >> OK

Hi orux that's realy great!!!

" tested with Oruxmaps 3.3.10beta >> OK" From where did you get that version?
Is the Swiss Grid cordinate vsible in following positions:
- At the bottom of the map, showing the current position?
- In Einstellungen/distanz/Koordinaten
- In Gehe zu:Punkt
- In Wegpunkte

when is it planned to release the new version?

thanks already very much!

Best regards Andres

Hi Orux

Thanks very much to implement Swiss Grid in OruxMaps. That's great! I tested the new Version v3.3.11beta.
Here my findings:
P1) I miss the possibility to search for a point (Gehe Zu, GoTo) in SwissGrid coordinates
P2) At the bottom of the map, showing the current position and in the menu "Wegpunkte" The coordinates are ok, but the values x,y are usually displayed contrary (600000 200000 and not 200000 600000).

If you have time you may implement the points above, what would be great.

Neverless already a big thanks to you, that you implemented Swiss Grid that fast!

Cheers Andres
