I had this issue before the update. Didn't get the chance to test it now as 2.5.5 doesn't see my Field Notes file anymore so reverted to a backup of 2.5.3..
When I pressed the + sign Locus added the GC to the category I selected, immediately the GC got the icon of the category instead of the icon of the cache.. This seemed to be causing the problem..

I'm on holiday and have some Geocaching on the schedule, look forward to testing this version!

Thanks for the update!

Really appreciate it!

Thanks a lot for this info!
It has bothered me a few times when I needed more precise location for a cache,  will surely test this soon. :-)

Come on people... If you see how cheap Locus is and how many updates and features there are, why be difficult over a small amount like this?
If you don't like it, create the maps yourself..

This is great news!
It's been a while since I went out caching but look forward to the new stuff, will force me to make some time to test it out :-)

Hi zailor,

thanks for the reply!
It was because of the topic I saw on Get Satisfaction I started to have another look at this to understand exactly how it works and what could be improved for my future needs
I would like to use it for bicycle and walking trips, these will be with a gpx file with the exact route (curves and all) or points on big curves and turns.

So if I understand you correct, the  "Notify when to far away from track" looks at the line instead of the points in the gpx that create the line?

I still don't fully understand the use for "Notify when switching to another point", do you use it in a gpx with only trackpoints or did you enter specific waypoints like points where you take a break?
I'm thinking of how "Notify when switching to another point" could be of use when riding a bike or walking but can't seem to find it
Perhaps it serves a whole different purpose.

grtz,
W.

Hi,

I really like the fact that I can record a route and let Locus guide me over it afterwards.
I'm interested in the "Notify when too far away from track" and am curious what it uses as reference.
Does it use the actual points of the gpx or does it look at the line created between the points.

Also, I don't really understand what the use of "Wapoints - Notify on distance" could be.

I checked the docu but it didn't contain a lot of info regarding this.
thanks in advance for any info!

grtz.

Thanks a lot for a small but useful feature :-)

Well, my further tests make me still believe that it is NOT possible to batch upload all offline stored logs as real logs to gc .com (not as fieldnotes!)
?

Sorry, I misunderstood you.. I thought you wanted to log one..

Batch indeed isn't possible yet.

Locus has the option to turn field note to log on gc.com from menu

This is great! Thanks a lot for these maps!
We're getting a new bike next month so this will surely come in handy :-)

Just checked and GC live function works as expected for me.

Hi Arcao,

I checked out the new feature and I must say, the Live Map is amazing!
This is a feature I've been hoping for a long time.
Thanks for adding it!

I did notice that when I enable Live map in a place where I have already imported some caches earlier, these caches show up double.

just saw this post this morning and I'm very excited to check it out!
it sounds very promising!

thanks for the nice update.
