Geocaching waypoints.
Geocaching waypoints.
Sorry for my poor English. When I upload a geocaching gpx file to the GARMIN/GPX folder, only the cache is shown. Other waypoints, such as parking, waypoints, etc are not visible.
Don’t have experience with geocaching GPX files, but you could try putting the file in the GARMIN\NewFiles directory as well as in the GARMIN\GPX folder. The H1 processes files in the folder on startup and converts the data to courses or locations, depending on the contents of the GPX file.
Thank you for your answer. The waypoints are on the map, but they are not in the list of H1. Please see enclosed picture.
Yeah I think that is because if you put a GPX file in GARMIN\GPX it is processed differently than when a GPX file is put in GARMIN\NewFiles. (Regular) Waypoints in a GPX file in GARMIN\NewFiles are added as locations to the Saved Data app, but apparently the same waypoints are not added to the Saved Data when the GPX file is put in GARMIN\GPX.
I'd suggest contacting Garmin support to check if this is the designed behavior or whether it's a bug.
Th workaround for this is to upload the extra waypoints as POI ... eg using this macro for GSAK, recently adapted for use with MTP devices
Thanks, but I'd wait for Garmin to fix it. I'd like to be able to use it like the GPSMAP 66sr. Unfortunately, I don't know the GSAK, and I don't know much about using macros.
I have noticed in my etrex Touch, should be the same as the H1 that when you select your geocache the corresponding waypoint get saved on you gps, and get visible on your map . So you dont see then until you select if for navigation. The icon is quite annoying as it is a round blue cirkle that fill up the map.....
As stated above I create my gpx files with GSAK where I get them saved as POI....
