  6. Nodes for selected polygon will be displayed in chosen coordinate order in DMSH (degrees, minutes, seconds, hemisphere) format.

Notes:

  1. Nodes with DMSH string format are kept in memory layer.
  2. Memory layer name is according to the following pattern:
    NodesDMS_[YYYY]_[MM]_[DD][HHMMSS.ssssss] example: NodesDMS_2021_04_08_204438.727141.
