Thanks!! I already tried this one without result... Just found the error: had it in 8-bit bmp i.s.o. 24-bit... Works fine now!! Thanks for the swift help!!

Small addition to the above: make sure in your filter(s) that you have chosen the "type 11" or virtual caches ON for this to work. Now I am only looking for a way to change the icon to the AL icon by using the Custom Symbol map. However, I do not know the exact name I have to give the icon .bmp file.... Anybody knows?

Hello, Glad to be of help. For info: I have a Galaxy Tab 8 with Android 13 and under the Advanced functions/Labs I get the possibilities as follows: Sorry everything is in Dutch, but you get the picture (literally :-) ) As you can see, the bottom option says "full screen". Apps can be chosen from list and for every app I can choose the "full screen" or the view "standard app" which gives the lay-out in your screenshot. This is the screen I get afterwards: As you can see: full width Geocache app scrollable. When turning the tablet to portrait, image turns auto to portrait as well. I will admit: I do NOT have this option on my phone (Samsung A52S with Android 13)... Hope this clears things out... Best regards

Hi, Just found out on my Samsung tablet with Android 13, so I do not know whether this is specific Samsung or Android 13 or combination of both: Settings/Advanced functions/Labs has an option to display portrait apps in landscape. You choose the app (here Adventure Lab and Geocache app) and then even choose whether you want to keep the original aspect ratio (gives you narrow image with black left and right) or full screen which does just that: full screen image that you can scroll down. This is an automatic feature, so when you turn the tablet back, image will change auto. Works like a charm!! Hopes this helps you!

Hi, Thanks @TommyGator for your reply. I have found my workaround in the meantime: Put custom symbol for traditional cache in appropriate map of Garmin GPS (different from the closed treasure chest) goto https://gcutils.de/lab2gpx/# and create .gpx file to your wishes (leave cache type as Lab cache and adapt options as you like) put created file into GPX map of Garmin GPS On restart of the GPS, all Lab caches are now visible as closed treasure chests and thus different from the trads (which you changed in item 1). You can even see the questions if you have chosen that option. Answering of course has to be done via app. This does serve my purpose however: when checking GPS, I can see if there are any Labs in the neighbourhood I'm in and even see if the stages are close to each other or miles apart! Hope this helps others!

Hello, As this is my first post in this forum, I hope I am in the right place... I was just wondering: When I use the Geocache app on my Android phone, I see all kind of caches AND the Adventure Labs on the map. When clicking on an AL, the other app opens and I can play the Lab. Now for the question: I use my Garmin Montana for geocaching and what happens frequently is the following: I find myself somewhere (for an appointment e.g.) with some time to spare, switch on the Montana, do a quick refresh via Geocache Live to see if there are any caches in the neighbourhood. However, I do not get the Adventure Labs that might be close to me. I do understand that, if this would be the case, I would need to get my phone/tablet out to complete it. Last time, I had my GPS showing me some caches and I had to balance both my GPS and tablet to have the combination of both.... So, in short: please get the "main" location of an Adventure Lab on the map of the GPS (as is the case on the Android map) so I can have an idea of the situation around me. If the next step could be integrated into the Garmin GPS logic, it would of course even be better (GPS is linked to phone/tablet via Bluetooth and Garmin connect anyway and therefore to internet) Thanks for follow up. Best regards, LVL

Great idea!!!

Hallo, Ik wou even informeren of u dit apparaat nog steeds te koop aanbiedt? Ik veronderstel dat alles compleet is (verpakking, batterypack, lader, etc.)? Verstuurt u of moet deze opgehaald worden? Dank voor reactie. Eventuele foto('s) welkom (kunnen als bijlage meegepost worden) Beste groeten, Wolfke2070

Okidoki! thanks voor je antwoorden!! nog effe wachten....

Hallo simon_cornelus, dank voor je duidelijke en snelle reactie! Dus samengevat: ik zou iedere keer voor ik vertrek alles moeten leegmaken, nieuwe query maken of opnieuw laden via Live download om de juiste situatie te hebben... Niet echt handig lijkt me... ik begrijp dat, als ik de caches verwijder (via "wis" optie of via USB), mijn teller ook terug op 0 (nul) gezet wordt en ik nadien de teller weer op het juste getal moet zetten (ik weet hoe dat te doen: gewoon op teller klikken en dan invoeren via klavier). Klopt idd dat de teller alleen oploopt als je "gevonden" log maakt via GPS, niet via andere middelen.... Ben aan het kijken om evt. een Montana 700 te kopen, benieuwd of deze problemen daar idem zijn of verholpen??? Greetz, Wolfke2070

Hello, ik heb een Oregon 700 die ik gebruik om te cachen. Deze is gekoppeld aan mijn account en de optie live download geactiveerd. Ik merk dat, als ik een update doe via de kaart (linksdraaiende pijl), de caches worden geüpdatet, maar de ondertussen verdwenen en/of gearchiveerde caches blijven gewoon staan! dit heeft als gevolg dat ik soms naar een cache zoek die er lang niet meer is... :-( ik lees in dit forum wel dat je ALLE caches kan verwijderen door de .gpx files te deleten, maar dat is niet echt wat ik zoek: ik wil de bestaande (gevonden en niet gevonden) behouden en ook mijn teller juist houden... Heeft iemand hier een oplossing voor of een verklaring waarom de update maar in één richting werkt? Thanks!!

Same problem here. Both on Firefox and Chrome. @oz_bean_counter : still NOT working here!!
