Trace Colour

Unread post by feraltek »

On my old eTrex20 I could set the colour of the current trace that's being formed as I paddle along a river. Pity the eTrex is now at the bottom of the Murray River after a spill. Is there any way to set the colour of the trace on the GPSMAP 66S. The dark colour of the trace is lost on the blue of waterways. I don't mean the colour of a saved track.

Thanks for any help

I apologize that information is not yet available here.

Open the Recording Controls page, press (right) to select the Information Tab, then press (Menu > Select Color).

Hello gpsrchive!
I read the post about 10 times, but could not find the information tab by pressing right

I could not find any function by pressing the right cursor. :ugeek:

You'll need to read the second post in this thread more than 10 times then....

Read it slowly. Read ever word.

Hint: Not in the Setup Menu

Got it :mrgreen:

Recording controls

Haha, never thought it might be here - my brain is still working with 60csx, 62 and 64 - therefore, that icon was never an option for me.
Thank you!
