Default Coordinates?

Hello there,

Is there somebody who can explain me how I can know the coordinates from a point (latitude and longitude) in GWX 1.03? I didn't find anything in the Nav Map...

Thanks a lot

Lopo

I just pause the game, then go ALT + TAB, then I can use my browser to go to the site, get the info I was then quit the browser, and open the game (which was minimized) and continue.
