Open In

Many Map View context menus display a customizable Open In list for opening locations in external mapping services.

Where the Open In List Appears

  • When right-clicking the map
  • When right-clicking a marker on the map
  • When right-clicking a geolocation link in a note (configurable in settings)
  • When right-clicking a line in a note that has a location
  • In the context menu of a note that has a front matter location

Configuring Open In Entries

Configure the list through the plugin's settings menu. Each entry has:

  • Name — displayed in context menus
  • URL pattern — a URL with optional parameters:
    • {x} — replaced by the latitude
    • {y} — replaced by the longitude
    • {name} — replaced by the location name (note name or inline link name)

Common Examples

OpenStreetMaphttps://www.openstreetmap.org/#map=16/{x}/{y}

You can figure out many other services just by inspecting their URLs.
