Interesting

I got a notification in BaseCamp and did this update a couple days ago.

When you are dead, you don’t know that you are dead. It is only difficult for the others. It is the same when you are stupid.

Thanks for heads up.

Thanks for heads up. Hopefully this will resolve some of the oddities I found while adding waypoints and creating a route on my last trip.

Thank you

Thanks for the Tip!

I use Basecamp several times per week. When I booted it on 10/11, V 4.2.2 was automatically uploaded. Not sure why it didn't upload V 4.2.3 then?? I had to do it manually. Anyway, thanks for the tip!

no classification of favorites

I still don't see it handling of classifications of favorites. That makes it a non-starter for me.

Would that be the opening post of this thread which clearly lists the changes?
