MyFinds found geocache symbol

Sat, 02 Jul 2016 17:05:59 +0000

It appears that in generated MyFinds gpx file all caches have symbol set to:

<sym>Geocache</sym>

And when loaded onto my Monterra (and I believe other models too) it appears on map as not found geocache (closed box).

File generated by geocaching website have this attribute set to:

<sym>Geocache Found</sym>

and it appears as open chest.

It would be great to have it fixed.

(It is listed on correct list though.)

Thanks!
