Show Map in context menu

[ron_hiner]

Much to my embarrassment, most of my PM enhancement requests are answered with "Dude, it's already in there!"

So I just bought a spiffy new GPS for my camera.   And I thought it would be cool to have an entry on the context menu that would right-click me right to Google Maps from the context menu.  So, before I wrote it up, I right-clicked on one of today's pictures in the contact sheet, and, sure enough, there was a new "Show Map" menu option which linked directly to Google Maps.  Yup, my feature request is already in there.   Good thing I checked... I have such a low tolerance for embarrassment.

Aha!   the "Show Map" option doesn't exist on the Preview screen context menu.   So there you go...  my enhancement request is to add it to the context menu of the Preview screen... and generally, I think, the context menu should be pretty much identical between the preview screen and the contact sheet.

Something tells me that I'm about to be embarrassed again.

No, you're not.  Unfortunately due to the way the Preview window works and how the Map window works, the Map window cannot be brought up from the Preview window.  Otherwise I would have done it already.

I didn't even realize there was a "Show map" option until I read this post 

Maybe someday PM will be able to import gpx and synch them up with the photos.  Having done this recently, it is much more difficult to do than it sounds.

There are plenty of tools for this but it would be great to add this munction to PM and maybe it could be added to the intest too. It would be really great option.
