Temporary waypoints saving

Is possible to save temporary waypoints to POIs?


I found that it can be done tapping every wpt and confirmation, but I`d like to save multiple waypoints at once.


If there were POI category "Temporary", it would be great because I`d be able to copy waypoints to "permanent" categories.

Hello Jen,


unfortunately some global saving of temporary points isn`t possible. How you achive higher number of these points in application? Solution should not just show them on map, but rather directly import to database

I have multiple caches saved in c:geo and if I press "display on map-Locus" it displays me all of them in Locus.


Main reason to re-save them to Locus is that I`d like to download maps or display "circles" around them which is not possible now because they aren`t in "saved POIs".

hmm understand. For this, which I don`t find to important, seems to be most simple solution to show points from c:geo with import tag, you instead of just display them, it will also allow to import them to some existing database.


Also what about some possibility to export data from c:geo as GPX and import to Locus?

Is possible to add/force this "import tag" in Locus somehow or must it be implemented in c:geo?


I thought I could do it using GPX too, but there`s no way to export caches from c:geo to GPX.

unfortunately it have to be done in c:geo. Such "tag" allow Locus API so c:geo have to call locus already with this tag. You may forward this wish to c:geo developer site.


because when I`ll try to add some functions for this, I think it will have very low usage and only complicate already little bit complicated software

Ok, I`ll try to ask c:geo`s developers or find some other way to do this.


I don`t know how you have this implemented, so I thought this might be something simple like just creating new POI category in Locus with filter "SELECT * FROM database WHERE category_id = -1" :-)

more simple that you wrote, really :)


In Locus API is function "sendData", which send points to Locus. And in this function is boolean parametr if import or just display.

c:geo use "only display" so if in c:geo will be possibility to switch this to "import" ...

Ok, I did fast research and then added this in c:geo and created pull request. I hope they will accept it.


Thank you for help ;-)
