Translating caches
I'm English speaking living in German speaking Switzerland on the border with France. I love to go geocaching but my language skills aren't up to translating all the details. It would be very useful to be able to translate caches. I found a way but it only does part if it stopping before the important bits and won't do logs. It would make it a little easier. With this I would also be able to do puzzle and multi caches which I can't vat the moment.

GCDroid closes when clicking on link, if orientation not set to "Auto (Device)"
Setting the orientation (Settings/General/Orientation) to "Portrait" or "Landscape" causes GCDroid to stop with an error message when clicking on a cache link from an email or text message.
On my phone (Moto Z2 Force, Android 8.0) this is repeatable. Changing the orientation setting back to "Auto" immediately fixes the problem and I can click on geocache links again, and open them up in GCDroid.

Verbesserung Erkennbarkeit Untermenü Koordinaten
für Peilung, ändern etc.


Koordinaten mit Distanz und Richtung aus Waypoint berechnen
Aus den Header Koordinaten heraus kann man Distanz und Richtung zum korrekten Final errechnen:

Bei einigen Caches ist es aber so, dass man von einem Refernzpunkt aus peilen muss. Diese Peilung ist aktuell nicht möglich:

Es wäre wünschenswert die Peilung in allen Waypoints zu ermöglichen.

Querformat Darstellungsfehler

Die Trackables haben scheints irgendwo einen Zeilenumbruch zu viel.

ja und nein.... ein Dashboard das auf allen Displays mit allen Aufloeung in allen Sprachen funktioniert ist fast nicht moeglich.
Alle Button in der unteren Reihe sind abgeschnitten, ABER daher gibt es ja das Feature: Change Layout (3 punkte menue).
Dort kannst du die Button groesse, etc einstellen. Die Einstellung ist fuer Hoch/Quer GETRENNT!
Mit OK bestaetigen, Telefon drehen und dann die andere Ansicht einstellen....
Sieht also zwar nicht aus wie ich es will aber genau dafuer hab ich das neue Feature eingebaut...

in technical terms the live maps loads at zoom level 14 I believe... in simple terms: zoom in until the icon changes from paused to either idle/loading.
I will keep loading as you pan the map

Googlemaps text size

No the tiles are bitmaps and as such there is no way to scale parts of it.

Recent Cache List
GCDROID would remember and store in a list or Possibly the database section each and every cache ..
- selected on a map (optional long press?)
- selected in a list or db
- opened or viewed
And then be easily acessable with a Recent Cache option in a menu, as well as the database section.

actually will close this one instead since the other one is closer to what I want to implement.
Closing, please follow topic here: https://gcdroid.userecho.com/communities/1/topics/59-transfer-from-old-wishlist-history-of-the-last-viewed-geocaches

Waypoint Tab Format
Current Waypoint format shows co-ords after any text entry. Could we have...
Waypoint Heading
Co-ords
Description
It simply looks better, and if the description is used as a notepad/Workings area, true co-ords won't be confused.
