[Qgis-user] Vote for Lat Lon Tools Default Coordinate Order -, YX or XY

[Mike Flannigan]

I too like lat,long, but I can live with anything that is done.
I'll just set it to lat,long.

I understand the thinking to change it to X,Y.  Many people
in the field would agree that is better.  I'm just not one of them.

I use this tool constantly.  Thank you.


Mike
