-==== Overwrite data ====
-Allows overwriting already exported data files (points or tracks).
-===== Export of geocaches =====
 When exporting multiple geocaches to a GPX file all of them are **checked if they contain complete information** (listing etc.). If they contain just basic info about coords, terrain, difficulty, they are **automatically updated** - export of geocaches takes a bit more time than in case of ordinary points.

 If you want to avoid this updating, set your Geocaching4Locus addon so that it downloads all information about caches directly (//Settings > Download >// **uncheck "Basic info only"**)
