Solved

Hello,


I tested the new dropbox import feature. The selected gpx is imported well, but not the *_wpt.gpx file also. Is there a way to import thi sin parallel?


Thx!

Have you tried to import them as a zip file?


I`m not a premium member any more, but I seem to recall that the caches and waypoints were zipped into one file.

Thx, zip is running fine, but in my "normal workflow" I got 2 files. If I have to zip them I also can run a ftp session to my mobil device. Not to have exctra effort is for me the benefit of the dropbox.

Well, the import page "Browse data" has a menu icon (three dots). From it you can select "Multi-select". Maybe this solves your problem.

Thx for the tip. In fact multiselect will import several files, but they are not used as related waypoint. Both files lead to "standalone" POIs. Sorry this does not help.


Any other tips?

Maybe you can change your workflow and keep the original PQ zip file?


But if you manipulate the gpx files, another method of introducing additional waypoints is to include the waypoints into the gpx file right after the corresponding cache waypoint. Then you only need to import this modified gpx.

Import of base GPX file and file with waypoints directly from Dropbox will work correctly in next 2.20.2 version
