import of waypoint from cgeo

userxxx · September 28, 2011, 11:18:35

I use to see all waypoints when calling Locus from cgeo, since recently, there is no waypoint, only the main coordinates.
As I also upgrade on cgeo part, I don't know whether this is a change on Locus (seems to happen with the change of icons), or on cgeo side (lot of dev there as well).

Can you check say with these caches: http://coord.info/GC2BAY6 and http://coord.info/GC2BAX9

Thanks

I just installed c:geo and tryed first geocache. Downloaded and stored in c:geo and then over menu -> navigate -> locus displayed in Locus and all correctly also with waypoints. Nice, don't even know about it ...

Thanks for testing, glad you discovered something nice.
I downloaded the latest cgeo release (from today) and tested again, same result, no waypoints displayed.
I have Locus 1.13.3., the merge waypoint option is not activated, and I zoom to be sure I would see the waypoints.
Would you thing of an option I should check that could interfer here?

Thanks again for your help

may you step by step describe me what you do? waypoint attached to cache are under cache page in locus on second button on bottom panel ..

I did exactly the same as you:
Downloaded and stored in c:geo and then over menu -> navigate -> locus

But in Locus it only shows the position of the main coordinates, I don't see the parking, nor the waypoints.

I don't understand your last sentence, the second button on bottom panel is to rotate the map, then zoom-out : zoom in and last lock zoom (first button is to center)

Waow, I played a bit with Locus, and found a way to display the information, via the cache page, the guiding points (or waypoints?), I can display all.
I use to see all waypoints directly when arriving from cgeo. Would it be possible to active this by default?

fine you finally discovered this

this wasn't never active before ... weird. If you want quickly display these waypoint, I suggest to add "Geocaching tools" button on right panel and there is function called "load all waypoints" ... this should help

Thanks a bunch! This thread helped me as well. Earlier, Locus autoloaded all waypoints when navigating to a cache. Is there any way to do this now? That would be great! And is there any way to put the Geocaching Tools as a button on the Locus screen? For easy access to the tools?

Edit: Found the right panel, and added a button. Thanks! Now, is there a setting where I can set Locus to autoload cache-waypoints when opening a cache through c:geo? That would be much appreciated!

Either way, love your app. Bought it, since I'm geocaching abroad sometimes. Works wonders!
