[TYPO3-realty] Problem with GPS coordinates

[Christoph Stadler]

Hi,

ok cool, now i get it ... i had both flags for exact and rough 
coordinates set to one and forgot to set the 'show exact adress' switch, 
once i set all rough coordinates sync to 0 it works in the details view. 
However in the list view there are only 5 pins appearing instead of the 
40 or so objects i have. I can't figure out why .. yet :)

The reason i'm inputting the exact coordinates (btw, i used this cool 
little tool to find them: http://itouchmap.com/latlong.html ) is because 
my objects are in a small village where there aren't any exact street 
number adresses. I also have another project in Berlin where i also need 
to input exact coordinates to show in which part of the house a flat is, 
houses here are quite big sometimes and there are cases where it's cool 
to show that a flat is in the backyard part of the building. In these 
cases the adress lookup would just show the entry of the building but 
precise coordinates show exactly where the flats are.
