clutter removal

[+6coondawgs]

I'm going on vacation so I downloade a bunch of caches in the area where we are going so now I've got a ton of treasure chests on my screen. I have a Garmin Vista Hcx and I think there is a declutter option or something like that, is that the option I want so that I can see the map without the caches. If that's it, how do I get the caches back when I want them?

Yes, it's the declutter option. If you are on the MAP press the left side bottom button and select declutter on. It should be listed as one of the options. To go back, you do the same only the option is now called declutter off. Hope this helps. Don't you just LOVE this little unit!

When I turn declutter on the caches still stay on... it doesn't seem to change the map at all. I have topo maps installed. Any other suggestions for hiding the caches?

Change the zoom level at which the caches show up. That way, the screen will stay clear until you zoom in close.

How do you adjust the zoom level? I found an option for autozoom on/off, but don't see where to adjust the level.

Go to the map page and press the left menu button to bring up the map set up option, then select the flag icon along the top, once you're there you will see the "User Waypoints" option and that's where you set the zoom level at which the caches show up.

Sweet! Thanks that's what I was looking for.

The declutter option only hides the POIs and street names. Waypoints remain visible.

 

I wish there was an option to turn on/off customized POIs.
