Seemyshell Posted November 21, 2017 Report Share Posted November 21, 2017 Hi, Firstly, I LOVE Cachly, but I do have a question regarding Mystery Corrected Coords. I love the feature of how the 'pin' moves to the corrected coords, with the red triangle on it. However, is there a way to have the pin move back to the original location for the purpose of GeoArt, so I can screen shot the art, then have them move back to corrected?

Highlands_guy Posted November 21, 2017 Report Share Posted November 21, 2017 Someone with far more knowledge than I will chime in, but as a suggestion, you can go the the geocaching website and view it there. The Geocaching website (and the app) moves the cache back to the original coordinates once found. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seemyshell Posted November 21, 2017 Author Report Share Posted November 21, 2017 Thanks Highlands_guy, What I'm looking for is to be able to screen shot the Art, not complete, complete the geoart trail with corrected coords, then screen shot it complete, back in the art. I'm a blogger, and would love to show this on my social media sites. Plus I wanted to screen shot the 'Cachly' app rather than the GC one.

Nic Hubbard Posted November 21, 2017 Report Share Posted November 21, 2017 This is a feature that will be coming in a future version. Rooski22 and Kyzabra 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Highlands_guy Posted March 20, 2018 Report Share Posted March 20, 2018 Curious if this feature was added. A person on the Facebook group indicated his found caches with corrected coordinates now return to the original coordinates once the cache is logged as found. Personally, I prefer the cache location to remain at the corrected coordinates once found. If I want to look at the Geo-art for found caches, I will look at it on the Geocaching ap or website.

rragan Posted March 20, 2018 Report Share Posted March 20, 2018 What was that person using when they saw this? Cachly 4.2 beta shows them at corrected coordinates. The geocaching.com app seems to work the way the FB person says. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Highlands_guy Posted March 20, 2018 Report Share Posted March 20, 2018 The user says he's on the 4.1 release (not beta). I've looked through the various settings options and don't see an option to return a corrected coordinate cache to the original location once logged as found.

Nic Hubbard Posted March 20, 2018 Report Share Posted March 20, 2018 Nothing has changed in Cachly for this. Highlands_guy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Highlands_guy Posted March 20, 2018 Report Share Posted March 20, 2018 Thanks. Often there is more to the story. It may be that the user is restoring the coordinates to the original value once he logged it as found. If you do add this as a feature, I would like to see it as a selectable option so the user can choose to show the icon at the corrected coordinates (my preference).

The feature I was considering is a global setting to switch all corrected cords back to orig. is this what you wanted? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only if it is a selectable feature to give the user the option to switch all corrected cords back to original or leave all caches with corrected cords at the corrected location. If it's not selectabe, I prefer it the way it is now. No change. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
