This is mostly a feature request for Maps, but am happy to learn of alternatives, existing duplicate requests, or correction if I misunderstand anything.
From my OLC specs reading, so far I’m aware that plus codes break down the Earth’s surface into cells with customizable precision (add/remove least significant digits on the right and possibly padding with 0, ex. CCCC0000+ vs CCCCCCCC+CCCC), optional use of a reference location (remove digits from the left and using a landmark name to select outer cell, ex. CCCC+CC City, Province), and the + formatting character to keep track of the place value, analagous to the decimal point.
However, when a plus code is given in Google Maps, the code always uses the same formatting and there isn’t any widget near the given plus code or in Maps configuration to customize it.
In my case, I don’t want to use the 6-digit version with a reference location (ex. GGHH+JJ City, Province) and would much prefer the absolute 10-digit equivalent (ex. CCFFGGHH+JJ) to avoid ambiguity and to be more aware of which larger regions correspond to which leftmost digits (ex. I want to recognize what continent/ocean is likely referenced with a CCFF0000+ prefix).
Thanks and greetings,
Owen
Sorry if my examples are not within the valid coordinates range, I was too lazy to use real examples
