Re: To many useless updates and missing features

thanks, that cleared up at least the method for me, witch are a big step but there is still a few things I need to understand Explorer is a web platform, it syncs the XT via Garmin Drive app on Iphone (Iphone don’t have any Explorer app?) First thing I don’t get is why XT can’t sync via Wifi, why do...

Re: How to see Waypoints

Thanks a lot for your inputs, it helps me on my way but I must say that Garmin is very very messy and difficult to understand I am a trained computeruser, had a Zumo590 for a year and now this brand new XT, but still I do not clearly undestand the way it works, 3 times within a month there was major...

Re: How to see Waypoints

The XT is very frustrating with Waypoints or Points of Interest that are built into a GPX file. On every other Garmin Device I have owned, when you import a gpx file of a track that contains waypoints, when you make the track visible on the screen, the waypoints just show up. The XT treats them dif...

Re: How to see Waypoints

Do you mean Waypoints ? - ie stored points that will appear in your Favourites Or do you mean points that define the route ? Garmin makes a very clear distinction between waypoints and other types of routing points, which affects how the route behaves on your Zumo. I would need to know what you mea...

Re: How to see Waypoints

You can import that GPX into Explore, with all its Waypoints, synchronize the Zumo with the Explore site, and then Settings / maps and vehicle / map layers / collections, check the specific collection. Also in Pain you can assign different icons to Waypoints, which will then be displayed on the XT ...

How to see Waypoints

Going on a trip, my friend send me a GPX file with several tracks and routes and a lot of waypoints with notes. I can see everything in Basecamp (on Mac) and in GPX Viewer, but when I import the file to my XT, (via Basecamp) I can’t see the waypoints anywhere on the track or on the map, what am I mi...
