Wow, you must have a very quick trigger finger as I can only ever get about three selections ahead of the Saved Tracks Menu on my GPSMAP 67 v4.80. If you press the D-PAD key more times than there are menu selections to highlight, you will get exactly the behavior you describe.

You don't have to click fast, but instead just hold the D-pad, then the bug will also occur. It also occurs in almost every list, for example when you are searching for nearby cities.

This bug also existed on the 66sr.

I checked again this morning, it does not happen on the 66sr, if I hold down the D-pad, it goes from track name to track name with a stop of less than 1 second on each track then goes to l Another trace, on the 67 it scrolls quickly without stopping so it's a bug. Version 4.80.

Yesterday, a short 7km hike, I passed through an old village with very narrow streets between the houses, the 67 behaved very well, its tracking in these streets was quite correct, even if there are small gaps normal.

The rest of the hike the follow-up was perfect even in holm oak woods.

It's a pity that there is no comparison to other GPSr.
This gpx track is not perfect for me.
The line passes through the center of the building, it is a deviation of several meters. I saw the same in my 67, not experienced with the 66sr.

Firmware version?

We are unable to duplicate at this time. Any additional details you can share to help us?

I also do not see this behaviour on my unit (firmware 4.80). What maps do you have enabled, maybe it's related to that?

Tried this as well on my unit, the bug is with the padding on right side of the popup menu. All popup menus are only as wide as the largest text inside, btw, so "screen is cut in half" is just how that UI element is displayed.

What's happening is that there is no padding at the right side of the popup menu. The french translation apparently right aligns all menu items (did not expect that, but maybe that is normal in France interface design?) so it appears like the text is cut off. This right alignment could also explain some of the other text issues you're seeing?

When set to English (or Dutch) the menu items are left aligned, and the popup screen will stil only be as wide as the largest text inside but due to the padding on the left side it looks a lot better.

This problem does not exist on my 66sr, I have never had these problems on the 66sr or any Garmin and have had many.

Another problem, but I'll see if it's from the µSD memory card, when I turn it on, it turns on and stays on the first Garmin page, then turns off, then turns back on then turns on again, then turns back on , then it works normally.

I have never had so many bugs on a Garmin GPS.

Please start a new dedicated thread for this crash, be sure to mention the firmware version, and upload a short video showing the crash occurring.

These two problems are random because when I want to make a video it works... I can't.

Is this normal (it didn't on the 66sr) when I'm on the map, menu, hide dashboard, it's well hidden, but if I go to another page, satellites, main menu, etc. .. the dashboard comes back, I have to hide it again.
