Google Maps in Cockpit

UX .zip Google Maps in Cockpit

I made a ux, to have the google maps button in the cockpit, very useful when the address or POI does not exist in iGO Nextgen, tested and working with all skins

Spoiler: Pic

Put the maps.zip in ux folder and enjoy
To enable go in:
Main Menu/Navigation Settings/Navigation View/Google Maps in Cockpit

Could you make it to open coordinates?

And in cockpit dragmode would also work? I tried every way.. I guess I have the right code also, but when I zip it.. It doesnt work.

Interesting ...
... but superfluous.
Each iGO has the option to type the coordinates you want as a destination. Or to show them, the same goes for GMaps.
In addition, today's phones and systems ... multitasking and GMaps far exceed the capabilities of the software of that time.
Dragmode - that's another story.

Also, it didn’t work everywhere. I’m not sure this ux is applicable today.

But maybe my colleague Korabi still has the will ...

This plugin is now out of date, as both Arimi and Pongo already have it in their Skins, but I don't see the need for such changes to get the coordinates and then drag them into iGO.
Once the point of interest has been found via Maps, it must be "shared" via Map2Geo (free from the Play Store) with iGO XXXX and is automatically set as a destination.

This operation only works from iGO started, strangely if you open Maps first and then share the point of our interest, iGO is started but the destination is not set ...

Send to Navigation to me doesn't work either way.

Send-To-Navigation (apk) is now top for many App-sharing, special iGO-Nextgen.
and yes, from many skins google.map works via a button in the cockpit. So no new invention of the wheel is necessary

The main difference is that Map2Geo sets the point found with Maps directly as the destination while SendtoNavigation puts it in your favorites and you have to search and set it.

Map2Geo currently only recognizes LUNA and Pal (no Avic and Israel) while with SendtoNavigation you can set many versions of iGO, from the old 9.6 to the recent 9.18 up to the latest 9.35, but it doesn't work for me with any version of iGO, it opens the navigator but I can't find anything in the favorites.

It works with all TomToms, even if I don't use them.

if already so far drawn out, then Transfer-to-other-map (apk) should be mentioned, I use share from google.map with iGO_Pal-VRmod
