 However, there are still some features hanging around on the map that you’ve added using the [[manual:user_guide:geocaching:tools#geocaching_tools1|graphical geocaching tools]], or caches that streamed in while using the live map… These are all reliably removed by the **Temporary map items** button with the trashcan symbol. It’s not in the default panel menu, but if you frequently work with the live map or various cachers’ tidbits, activate it in the customization menu.\\ {{ :manual:user_guide:content_panel27.jpg?nolink |}}
