# Entity Table and coordinates

Asked by beka on 2018-03-28

Dear OF staff,
After doing several tests we discovered the following challenges: 
1. when searching for the diameter of certain species the whole list is shown on the screen, that takes a lot of time to search in. It would be great if the "Entity Table" has the filter function. e.g. I am able to filter the species that I need and observe their diameter out of selected species. 
2. While entering the coordinates manually, after every two digits we need to click again to continue writing the rest of the digits. e.g. If I have the coordinate like this: 257585 after entering 25 it needs to be clicked again to write 75 and then click again to finalize the coordinate.

Dear Beka,  
Regarding both points, are you talking about Collect Mobile right?  
The first point is a bit tricky to be implemented, it will require some more discussions and probably we will contact you on this.  
The second point can be solved by the end of the week, there should be a bug in Collect Mobile that prevents you to edit that field correctly.  
If you see a new release of Collect Mobile, that release will contain the patch for the mentioned problem.  
Many thanks,
