brudderman 12 Report post Posted March 28, 2019 Frequently I look at caches in older offline lists and then want to examine the same general area in live view to see if there are any new caches that that weren't there when I created the offline list. What I do now is copy the code from a cache in the offline list, transfer to live view and paste the code in the search bar, search for the cache, adjust the zoom to see the desired area and then refresh the live view to show the caches. This isn't very hard to do, but I'm wondering if there is some more direct way, perhaps a setting or option I have missed, that will let me jump from the view in the offline list to the same general area in live view.

I had tried this option before posting but obviously misunderstood what was happening and thought that I was still viewing other caches in the same offline list because the Lists icon (rather than the Live icon) at the bottom of the screen remained highlighted. But the cache that was selected when "Find Caches Near This" was invoked moved to the the center of the screen and was surrounded by nearby caches. So this is actually a live view centered around the selected cache? If so, it's just what I need! I appreciate the explanation and the convenience! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

brudderman 12 Report post Posted December 28, 2019 Another question about the "Find Caches Near This" feature. I now use this frequently, and it does take me to a view of the caches near the one selected. It shows, however, all of the caches that I have already found, and I don't see any way to filter those out so I can see only the unfound caches. Consequently, I still find myself copying the GC code, switching to the "real" live view (from the tab at the navigation bar at the bottom), searching for that code and then filtering as necessary. Are there filter options in the "Find Caches Near This" mode that I'm missing? Thanks! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Will consider adding this in the future. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
brudderman 12 Report post Posted January 7, 2020 Thanks for considering. Just being able to filter out found caches would be a great help since I’m almost always wanting to see just those that haven’t been found. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
