+hoges in wa Posted January 13, 2018 Share Posted January 13, 2018 Hi. New unit I am just beginning with. When I select a cache to go for, I can get the Description and I can get logs but nothing else, like no hints or photos. Is this correct or am I not finding or displaying something correctly? thanks Terry Quote Link to comment
+Kalkendotters Posted January 13, 2018 Share Posted January 13, 2018 Photo's: no (unless you use a special Macro in GSAK) Hints: When you actively navigate to a Cache , the you will get a seperate 'hint'menuitem in the Geocache-menu Quote Link to comment

But you must have a Goto on that cache to see the Photo label/button.

+Mineral2 Posted January 13, 2018 Share Posted January 13, 2018 Well whatdaya know, it still works on the Oregon 600 - with some minor changes. Photos are accessed not from a new menu item, but from a photo icon on the logs page. And photos have to be installed on the GPS itself, not the SD card. Quote Link to comment
+HHL Posted January 13, 2018 Share Posted January 13, 2018 Yes, never told anything different. ;-) The directory and the image: Cache with image on map: Spoiler image whilst a Goto on Garmin Montana: Hans Quote Link to comment
+Mineral2 Posted January 13, 2018 Share Posted January 13, 2018 Well, that's both useful and an incredible pain in the a** (for someone without GSAK). Quote Link to comment
