Re: What's new on Geocaching Australia
Posted: 22 April 12 9:16 pm
A small update to the Cachers logs Google Earth feed
example: http://geocaching.com.au/cacher/CraigRat.kml
It now sorts the caches in the order they were logged (finds, attends and photographed log types only)
It also now shows the log date and the log in the bubble as opposed to just the cache link.
To do a tour, simply go to the "<Cachername>'s Logs" folder once loaded and click the play tour icon.
You can get good results by going to the 'Touring' settings tab in Google earth and set 'Show balloon when waiting at features' and speeding up the 'Time between Features' setting, and perhaps the 'Wait at Features time' to 2 seconds or so.
Nothing groundbreaking, only I just read a blog where someone said it couldn't be done, so I did it. (Which is how a lot of features end up here )
Enjoy this feature we've had for years but no-one really knows about
