Google earth question

[+goin' in circles]

Today I was actually trying to use Google earth for a non-geocaching purpose (crazy, I know), and the geocaching icons were in the way. How do I turn those back off???

On the left hand side of the screen in Google Earth you should have a scroll box labeled "Places". The Geocaching Network KML should be loaded in that box with a checkbox beside it. Clear the checkbox (click on it) and the icons will disappear. Hope this helps.

Awesome, thanks. I didn't have Places up, just Layers - thanks again.

File -> Select Planet -> New -> Create from Template

 

...I wish.

How do I turn off the geocaches I've already found? Is this possible?

Not sure if this works with the KML and I can't test as I don't have my windows laptop handy. But it *does* work with the gpx files you import from pocket queries.

If you click the little arrow next to... "GPS Waypoints" or whatever it's called, you can click each individual cache's checkbox to make it disappear. If you want it gone for good, you can also "del"ete it.

The only way I know of changes the icon, but doesn't remove them.

 

Search for Google Tweaker in these forums and you'll find that thread.
