Another useful GSAK & MemoryMap macro

[+CrazyL200]

If you use Memory Map, GSAK and child (particularly parking) waypoints, then this macro might be of interest and help.

 

One thing we noticed during the build and testing of this is the many different prefix codes used for parking children by various different cachers.

 

My original aim was to be able to add parking waypints into GSAK to export to a road nav GPSr.

But Gmaps (now built into GSAK), doesn't show rights of way, where as MM does.

You need the 7.2 Beta version......that error says you're not fully up to date

Ah, it's been written to make use of the version 7.2 functions which is still in beta (although totally reliable), which is due for imminent release. Although, easily available from the GSAK forum.

See here.

 

I've been using 7.2 since it's first release in beta and had no problems. The additional functionality is great.

 

If users don't like the idea of beta, then, I'm afraid this won't work until 7.2 is on general release.

 

Sorry for any confusion, I should have waited until 7.2 was fully released to link to it here.

GSAK ver 7.2 is now out of beta and on general release. So this macro is now usable by everyone, including those who prefer not to run beta software.

 

You can download the latest version from the GSAK homepage
