 {{ :manual:user_guide:ic_point_add_alt.png?nolink|}}====== Adding New Points ======
-FIXME RECONSTRUCTION FIXME
 ----
 **[[manual:user_guide:points:about#user_points|User points of interest]]** can be added to map several ways - by **creating new points** from scratch, by **creating new points with some predefined parameters** or by **[[manual:user_guide:points:import|importing]]** them from outside of Locus.
-===== Basic ways =====
+===== Default position =====
 New points are automatically created on your **actual GPS position**. There is an option to create new points on **position of the map cursor** but you need to set it up in **[[manual:user_guide:settings:points_tracks#new_point_default_location|points settings >>]].**

 ==== Basic info ====
-  * **Icon & Name** - default new point icon is given depending on context. E.g. when you create a new point in a specific folder, the point has icon of the folder.\\ It can be changed - just tap and choose from selection of Locus and Garmin style. If you leave it as it is, no specific icon will be associated with the point and it may be changed when the point folder icon changes. The name is by default a time stamp of creating the point and can be edited too. Name is one of the main point identifiers so no name points are not allowed.
