Title: Deleting fieldnotes: no update for the cache icon
Post by: TimoG on September 11, 2013, 20:15:47
Hello,

I'm new to Locus and have a problem with the fiedlnotes.

When I use the Geocaching tools menu and delete a fieldnote, the icon of the cache is not updated. It still has the icon of the previous fieldnote. Only when I move direct to a cache and remove the fieldnote there the icon will be updated.

Is this a known bug? Are there any workarounds or have I to wait for a new update?

Thanks,
Timo

Hi,
  it's a question. Currently solution is not a bug, but more an intent.

  Imagine "Field note" as just an your record in plain text file (gcFieldNotes.txt) on your card. In Geocaching Tools menu, you simply delete this record, nothing more. Fact, that you created "Found" log means, that you really found this cache, so why you want to remove "Found" smile on cache?

  If you delete "Found" log in cache itself, it's commonly used if you log "Found" by accident, so I allow to remove also "Found" mark in this case.
