Description Dennis Schridde 2010-07-30 14:16:55 UTC

Version:           1.2.0 (using KDE 4.4.95) 
OS:                Linux

I would like to search for a location in the image->geolocation->add-coordinates dialogue. So I could e.g. type in "statue of liberty" and it would bring me to the right place. Same goes for addresses, like "1 nice st, funtown".
This could probably be done using googlemaps.

Reproducible: Didn't try

Note that this search box is only available in the V2 API. You can use the "Configuration" button to switch to the V2 API. Some people experience problems with the V2 API, this is why we have both V2 and V3.

That explains why I did not find it: I tried v3 only, because v3 > v2 and so on. ;)
