Online search

I try an online search for "church" - no results, wrong (attached 1). I try a search for "basilica" - nearest 240km in results (attached 2) but others on map within few km.

I try an online search for "toilet" - the results are good but yet again why not sort by distance - closest 19m away but 5th in results?? (attached 3)

In online search, dragging the cursor over the middle/ top half of map point doesn't show tooltip - see attached. I suggest the popup should be displayed when the cursor is over any part of the point. This could be related to my enabled setting "magnify all maps".

when I tap on the red circle-arrow map icon, two items are listed, tapping the 1st is ignored, tapping the 2nd pans the map to the point. intended?

note, the 2nd search item for "Patisserie" is a record 18,000km away! As mentioned many a time, I'm sure there are far more relevant results.

Yes, I think. You can activate the "Centre on point" option in the Expert Settings under "Points". The map will then jump directly to the item you are looking for.

Thanks a lot - fixed. Interesting setting default seems non-intuitive.

That reminds me, the setting below "centre on point" - a value of 0 is not accepted, and the formatting includes 1 decimal rather than integer format. (yes, separate topic, have already mentioned before, but forgotten)
