virtual gps search coords : wysiwyg

Question

As a followup to my issue @ https://project-gc.com/qa/?qa=14915/virtual-gps-search-fails-on-corrected-coordinates and the valuable description of its reason (search/filter works on coords in decimal form only) I request that search entry regards coordinates should be done in viewable format. When search internally relies  on decimal format, then this recalculation should be also done internally.

From my experience with the mentioned problem, I guess that the internal data format is decimal overall, where coordinates occur.

Thanks for making the UI more convenient

Indeed, format conversion is probably the most frequently used conversion I have to do. D.dddd into D.MMSS is easy while our most used form DD.MMmmm is a bit more difficult to handle so would be good if the UI would consider that.
