Update also the assistance when updating a waypoint

rvheddeg shared this problem 12 years ago
Solved

1) Show a waypoint of a (multi) cache.


2) Select this waypoint and choose "assistance" (the button in the middle)


3) Now choose "assistance on"


4) Now select this waypoint again and click on the Tools (The 4th button from left)


5) Choose "Edit" and change the coordinates.


=> The coordinates of the waypoint were changed, but the assistance stays locked to the old coordinates?!?


6) If I now remove this waypoint, the assistance still stays?


7) When I click on the "assistance" and choose "edit", the waypoint reappears on his old location


8) in the multicache there are now 2 waypoints with the same name? The first one and the second one. This makes me wonder, when removing a waypoint, is it really gone?

Hello,


thank you for the report. I have to ask


1. are you using latest Locus version 2.8.3?


2. what is source of your geocaching points? You have them stored on Locus database or source is some add-on?


I`m not able to simulate this problem anyway truth is that guiding (assistance by you) remain enabled when you change waypoint coordinates. Usually on normal points, I disable this guiding feature, so I added same behavior also when you edit cache waypoints ...

thank you for additional information


you may choose where to store points if you in add-on enable "Import caches". Then will be permanently stored in Locus database

I don`t know where to set this property, but I store them in a separate category, so I guess they are imported in the Locus database.


I can consult them even after the restart of Locus.

Problem should be partially solved with new point screen in Locus 2.20.0. Additional fixed will be in next comming 2.20.2 version.
