workspaces disapear and functionality
Posted: Wed Dec 26, 2018 4:00 pm
Hi, I am now certain that workspaces vanish on their own. Last year I decided to back them up so I can recopy them when they vanish and I need them.
Landmarks also vanish.
The other thing that is not intuitive to me is that landmarks appear to be saved globally as opposed to within workspaces. I would think that when I pick a workspace, that I would have the placemarks stored within the workspace but that does not appear to be the case. Instead, I see all of the placemarks that I have, regardless of the workspace. Not the end of the world but don't see the point of having my England placemarks showing on my Canadian cross country skying workspace.
I can live with this but it would be easier if they were stored in the workspace since when I have to restore it from my backup I would only have to copy a folder as opposed to also copy the landmarks.
I have created myself notes so every 6 months when I need to switch workspace, I remember what I have to do to recreate them along with the placemarks from my backups.
