Is there a way to have two controls that govern a single variable in a Manipulate? Specifically, I am using a Locator to select an {x,y} coordinate, but I would also like the user to be able to directly specify x and y, in InputFields.

Similar questions have been asked, but not with Manipulate and not with a 2D variable.

    $\begingroup$ Yes, just put in the controls with the same variables. $\endgroup$

For example:

Manipulate[
 LocatorPane[Dynamic[{x, y}], Graphics[{Red, Disk[]}]],
 {{x, 0}, InputField},
 {{y, 0}, InputField}
 ]
