How to send position using Telegram Desktop?

Question

I'm trying to move my first steps in Telegram, so sorry for the entry-level question.

I'm trying to use some simple Bot that I'd like to replicate and then evolve them: testing these bots from Telegram Desktop on my pc (Win7), I should send my position to obtain some response.

For example try to use Farmacie Italiane as bot .....

The bots suggest me to use the the bottom right icon (on the left of "Scrivi un messaggio" in the picture),

but when I click on it I can upload a file or a a photo.

How can I send my position to the bot?

Any suggestion is appreciate ... thank you in advance!!

Seems like Telegram for Windows doesn't allow to send location right now. But you can use any mobile version for this.

UPDATE: as of May 2016 Telegram Desktop for Mac (v. 2.10.45.133) has this feature. The Linux desktop version has not this feature (v. 0.9.42).

Nov 2016: Windows desktop client (v. 0.10.19) still doesn't have this feature.

Feb 2017: Windows desktop client (v. 1.0.12) still doesn't have this feature.

Jun 2017: Windows desktop client (v. 1.1.7) still doesn't have this feature.

Jun 2018: Windows desktop client (v. 1.3.7 alpha) still doesn't have this feature.

Aug 2024: Windows desktop client (v. 5.4) now have this feature! In dialog, hover cursor to clip, and click "Location".
