    Save current location?

    hey, is there a way to save current location as a favorite, instead of needing an address. Like in FD you can just click the save location button.

    *EDIT* Solution figured out. Post 7

    I was actually thinking about this today. It'd be cool to have a list of favorites that you could instantly store based on your current position. Really useful for geocaching, etc.

    Design: [=======-----]70% (Building a false panel to cover up my goodies)
    Install: [======--------]600% (Need to replace screen and beisel)

    This feature would be great. my previews car had that. this feature is good when you are in a location that you are not familiar with, or lest say that you pass a store and you would like to save that location or address.

    I know there used to be a button that allowed you to do that. Maybe they took it out when they added all the other features. Real estate issues no doubt.
    I doubt they would have actually removed the feature. Just the button.
    So it should be easily skinable back on as a button, or like S4Per said, make a gesture for it.

    Ok, so if you hit "browse" will in the navi module, then click on a certain location on the map, the address will show up, then you can click on the little arrow and star button that shows up, and add it to favs. Seem somewhat cumbersome to me, I'm going to poke around and see if there's a better way.

    EDIT:

    Ah HAH. In the gesture setting menu, there's one called "Add current gps location to favorites" It's not active by default. It's number 173.

    You can add a button to the skin that adds the current location to a favorite...
