+TheCrazyChemist Posted September 29, 2014 Share Posted September 29, 2014 Hello all! I have discovered a problem when generating PQs. Ticking the "Is Enabled" box doesn't exclude inactivated caches. Thus, they are still generated within the GPX. Please, correct this, as it is most annoying. Best Regards TheCrazyChemist Sweden Quote Link to comment
+palmetto Posted September 29, 2014 Share Posted September 29, 2014 I'm guessing this problem may be on your end - mostly likely you are opening the query into a database or device from which you have not first purged the existing caches, some of which may have been disabled since your previous query. I just ran 2 queries, 500 Disabled caches from my home coords, and 500 Enabled caches from my home coords. The 2 queries worked correctly. There were no enabled caches in the disabled group and no disabled caches in the enabled group. Quote Link to comment

I have noticed the same behavoiur as TheCrazyChemist, and it is NOT a result of "duplicate caches" on the gps unit. The cache exists in one and only one PQ, and it is included in the PQ even though I have ticked the box "is enabled" when I create the PQ. You can also view the result of the PQ on www.geocaching.com/map/ and see that also "grey" caches are visible on the map. /tomastomas Quote Link to comment
+TheCrazyChemist Posted September 29, 2014 Author Share Posted September 29, 2014 Hmm.. Seem to be related to overlapping PQ's were the inactive cache is present in one of them and not in the other. Palmetto; Do you know how Garmin performs the priority between caches when multiple GPX-files are present? Sorry for misinformation. Generation of PQ seem correct. /TheCrazyChemist Quote Link to comment
