 |Show direction|Activating this option will show a directional line (or a routed line if routing options are installed) on the map between your current position and the navigation target.\\ You can activate the direction line by opening the map for a single cache or selecting a cache on the map and activating the feature in the cache popup window now shown on the map (the latter is only applicable for offline maps). //(Default: Activated)//|
 |Show trail|With this option you can activate a trail showing your position history (your movement) on the map. //(Default: Deactivated)// \\ \\ :!: Please be aware, that this does neither provide a track recording nor a permanent trail. It will only be accurate as long as you use the map and have GPS enabled and will have gaps or jumps in case you switch your device to standby or deactivate GPS. If you would like a reliable track recording you should rather use a specialized app.|
-|Trail color|Here you can select the color of the trail line on the map between grey blue or green according to your personal preference.|

 |Calculate route|With this setting you can select the maximum distance up to which a route is calculated and shown on the map between your position and the selected cache. You can either use the slider to set the value or click on the number to set a new value. //(Default: 10km)// \\ \\ :!: This function requires the [[.:utilityprograms|Brouter helper app]] to be installed on your device.|
 |Show straight distance|If the setting is active, the straight distance to the target will be shown additionally to the routed distance while routing is active. //(Default: Deactivated)//|

 |Active low-power mode|The low power mode avoids using GPS and the gyroscope sensor in situations where a highly accurate location is not strictly necessary (e.g. on cache lists) at the cost of longer fixing times once high accuracy is needed again. It can help to enhance battery life in some situations.\\ We however recommend to keep this option switched off to have the highest possible accuracy which is desirable for Geocaching in general. :-)|
 |Force use of orientation sensor|On some devices the regular rotation vector sensor behaves erratically, giving the wrong direction when using the c:geo compass. In this case you can activate this option to instead use the orientation sensor, which may provide better results.\\ We recommend to enable this option only in case of compass problems on your device.|

 |Enable hardware acceleration|Hardware acceleration renders graphical elements faster on the screen and thus provides a better experience while using c:geo. However on some devices the operating system contains bugs which can make some text appear blurred (notably bold characters). Disable this option only if this happens to you.|
 |Activate debug log|c:geo can generate a lot of debugging information needed for development purposes. Please use this feature only in case you are asked to send a log to the c:geo developers or you know what you are doing.\\ \\ :!: Activating this setting will affect the stability of c:geo. Please keep debug logging disabled during normal usage of c:geo!|
 |Create memory dump|This is a development function, which can help to debug special problems in the c:geo memory handling. Using this function is nothing helpful for you, but will only spam your internal storage with a rather huge dump file. So better not use it. :-)|
