R RichardN Well-Known Member Licensed User Longtime User Dec 26, 2014 #1 The Android geo: URI syntax appears to be a limited subset of the RFC 5870 spec. Code: Dim i As Intent Dim URI As String URI = "geo:0,0?q=lat,lng(label)" 'This works URI = "geo:+" & lat & "+,+" & lon & "+?z=13" 'So does this i.Initialize(i.ACTION_VIEW,URI) i.SetComponent("googlemaps") StartActivity(i) My wish is to jump to a lat/long, at a specific zoom, drop a pin and label it. Unfortunately some of the URI parameters appear mutually exclusive, for instance <z=12> and (Label) will execute the first parameter encountered and ignore the other. Has anybody arrived at a syntax that will achieve my wishlist ?
