Nick, Thanks so much! It was there all along! Sometimes the simplest things can make a big difference! Just when I think I have a pretty good handle on this route planner, I find something else I should have known... Thanks again, Jim O'Dowd

@le-dizes-freddy yep, but even if they were not permitted, it would not explain the fact of instructing me back on to the motorway. I could see the route highlighted ahead, on my screen. attempting to take me off then back on. I am not new to this app, and I would consider myself quite an experienced user, I was just pointing out the behaviour, and as stated above, the same route has been done previously without this issue. I think it was having a bad day, as my phone got really hot, not done this for a long time, and the app crashed a couple of times later in the ride.

Aanvulling: Vandaag online gereden en in diverse tunnels GSM verbinding kwijtgeraakt waardoor herberekenen startte. Eenmaal weer buiten de tunnel werd de route acuut weer opgepakt op CarPlay. Online wordt het blijkbaar dus wel opgepakt na een onderbreking van GSM dekking. Offline wil je juist onafhankelijk zijn van GSM. Waarom start dan herberekenen als je het GSM signaal kwijt raakt? Klinkt niet logisch toch?

@Hanspeter-Gruber-4-0 MRA Academy training sessions in English will be held later in the year.

@Papasmurf2 No. Import it as a route if you want your 595 to create a route from it. You can import both the route and the track if you wish. The 1.2 .gpx format embeds the track information in the route information of the file. This embedded track information within the route forces the Garmin to create the route exactly like you intended when it imports the 1.2 .gpx file. The track itself is also included in a separate section of the .gpx file so you can import the track as well as the route. In other words, the 1.2 .gpx files contains two copies of the track. One is embedded within the route information section, and another copy is in a separate track section. When you use the "Save As" feature from within MRA you'll see that the file contains the route (with embedded track information), the track itself and the POI information. [image: 1783107297985-gpx.jpg] To illustrate this, I created a VERY simple route with just the starting point, one shaping point and the finish point. You can view my route here in MRA. Here's a copy of that simple route saved as a 1.2 .gpx file. You can download it and then view it with any text editor. I also created a .pdf file to clearly show the various sections that you can view here from the .gpx file. You'll see in my example .pdf file that the green section is the Header, the yellow section is the actual route with the embedded track which forces the Garmin to follow the exact path that you intended, and the blue section is the actual track that can also be imported. I hope this helps!

enjoy the country side. hope it isn't raining cats and dogs

Dit is SUPER!, ongelooflijk hoe jullie met zo'n kleine groep mensen dat voor elkaar krijgen. Voor allemaal super bedankt en in dit geval Cor-Jan

Ik ben niet meer te helpen, ik ben reddeloos verloren

@Apatrida-2-0 Cuando lo uses, no querrás cambiar. Es el mejor planificador y conjuntamente con su navegador, no tiene rival. Ya hace tiempo que lo uso y ni siquiera exporto los GPX para tenerlos por si he de usar otro navegador... porque no lo he necesitado (por ahora). Saludos, y nos vemos en la carretera (perdon @b0hd1 por el plagio )

@Edwin_M Thank you for sharing our Tool Edwin! Good to hear you like it.

@Lynchy67 It is on the list for major maintenance of the website, just like being able to export multiple routes in one go. Please be patient.

@Garry-Davis exactly, that would have been my second advice, but you are one step ahead. You can choose your beloved app, to count a route to the petrolstation

Hi ! So, the bad news is that Transfagarasan is still closed for now, but it should be opened in the next two weeks. You can check the live cam from time to time: https://www.roxy-world.ro/webcam-transfagarasan Good news is that Transalpina was opened about 5 days ago, some of my friends went there already and confirmed this. Enjoy Romania !
