@Nomko-Nomden klopt maar dat is het totaal van shapingpoints en viapoints. Die laatste mogen er maar 31 zijn, viapoints dus

@Nomko-Nomden, De RX bibliotheek bevat ook routes die géén rondrit zijn (getuige mijn eerdere screenshots). Dat zijn uiteraard RouteXpert routes ja, en ik denk dat @René-van-Mil daar wel degelijk naar op zoek is, getuige de screenshot van zijn eigen poging in RouteXpert bibliotheek.

Punt is alleen dat er (uiteraard) geen RX routes bestaan van Maastricht naar Barcelona, omdat dat véél te lang is voor een ééndaagse route. Maar dat wil niet zeggen dat er niet voldoende RX routes zijn om inspiratie mee op te doen. De kunst is om die bij elkaar te vinden, en volgens mij is mijn toelichting daar prima op van toepassing.

I've added a button straight to the support page! 🙂

Great job my friend!!! Well done!

@M-Schrijver said in From Route to Track?:

Why create a track from a route when you have a proper route. Please explain.

Track navigation has been the defacto method of guaranteeing equal routes among different platforms for many years. Whether a route is proper or not you cannot tell in advance when someone else made it (for many people that also counts when they made it themselves 😉 )

So, MRA developed a method in which you can ride a route as track, which keeps VIA points and Shaping Points (you can choose!) in your track. This circumvents possible detours due to traffic or differences in recalculation, and ensures that you can re-enter the track at any desired point. You should try it, it works amazingly!

Although I agree that a proper route does not need this, it is fact that opinions on "proper routes" differ greatly... check this MRA video about this:
https://youtu.be/71e_-oX4V48?si=SkNeQH-fZ8LflMUs

@Frank-Hosper, geen idee, want ik heb niet echt ervaring met TT's. Maar zou het mogelijk zijn dat een TT, net als de MRA app, je naar de start van de track navigeert, en dat blijft doen als je dat punt niet raakt? De verklaring zou dan zijn dat één van de twee wel, en de ander niet dat routepunt heeft geraakt. Eén ding is zeker: als de route echt als TRACK is ingeladen in beide toestellen, kan het aan de track zelf niet liggen. Misschien een goede vraag voor een TomTom support forum.

@Corjan-Meijerink Aren't things like which map you chose to use and what type of mode (driving, walking, motorcycle, etc) you prefer persistent across all routes when they're first created?

It's not a big deal, but if it could be implemented with relative ease it would certainly be appreciated! If seasonal closures were even remotely accurate in my area it wouldn't be so annoying, but they're not.

Thanks for your consideration!

@Guzzist said in Waypoint automatic renaming when moved:

I don't understand the long discussion here

Me neither, but obviously for different reasons 😉

Here's what I finally did that works extremely well for me. As I said in another post I simply wanted to see all of the exact GPS points in a .gpx file that comprise a track overlaid on a map. I found an even better solution than what I was originally looking for using the Google Earth Pro app (free) and Gpsvisualizer.com (also free except for the donation I made).

Download and install a free copy of Google Earth Pro. You could use the web browser version, but according to an email from Adam Schneider (creator of the gpsvisualizer.com website and utilities) if you have a thousand or more gps point it can overload your browser.

Go to to the "Convert your data for use in Google Earth" page in gpsvisualizer.com.

Upload your .gpx file using the "Upload your .gpx data files" option on the right side of the page, then under "Track Options" select "Yes, with no names", then under "Waypoint Options" select "Default Icon" and select how you want your GPS points to be drawn (I chose small circles".

Select "Create KML file" and a .kmz file will be created that you can then download on your computer.

When you click on the downloaded .kmz file the Google Earth app will open automatically and the track will be displayed with all of the GPS point. It will look something like this:

GPS points.jpg

You can zoom in and out right down to the street level, and you can also move around 360 degrees to view the track and points from any angle.

I know this information will be useless to most people as everyone basically just wants to see the finished track, but if you are curious here's how to view your gpx file tracks individual gps points!

If you plan for other riders. Do not use export to Plan.tomtom.
Use Save as GPX. Which doesn't really matter. So 1,1 is good.
Plan.tomtom is for one device only.

My trip in Easter too. 👍

@Sanktjohanser, That's crucial information you left out 😉
Correct answers have been given.

@Canario said in Add option for stripping shaping points in gpx export:

@ConiKost
I use outdoor Garmins since decades for my Moto bike Tours. Having ViaPoints part of the route is one of the most important things for my routing. With export/import of the GPX 1.2 files and recalculation set to off in the Montana 700i, the Routing works fine but the ViaPoints are missing.
It surely seems to have something to do with the GPXX : Subclass Tags. It would be great, if ViaPoint support for Garmin Outdoor Devices could be implemented in MRA. Until then, I will stick with Basecamp, possibly running on a virtual machine with Windows 10 or 11 in the future.

To be honest, I don't have high hopes, that this will be proper supported in future, as most of the users here uses automotive devices like Zumo/Tread. And the roadmap seems to have more important features on it's list (which I can even understand..)

So, although not a critical issue or something, it looks like currently not possible and a nice-to-have somewhere in the future. Thanks for your inputs.

I found the issue about visibility of events at page "Activities":
By creation of an event, it's needed to have entered minimum information:

then, an event will be populated immediately at page "Activities". So, no change, nor development is needed for this point of my suggestions.

But still an overview or teaser about blog posts should be presented at this page "Activities". Without any enhancement no one can find and read such blogs.

@Plüss-Ulrich ja, wenn du z.B. in MRA-Routeplanner eine Route offen hast, dann kannst du im Menüpunkt "Routen" andere Routen auflisten - und über den Button [Add] der dann sichtbar wird - die zusätzliche Route zusammen mit der ersten Route am Bildschirm darstellen lassen.

Die zusätzlich(en) ausgewählten Routen werden auch links im Menübereich gelistet. Jede hat dann auch eine kleine Auswahlbox für eine andere Farbe. Und je ein Icon "X" um sie wieder zu entfernen. Sowie je ein Icon "+" um sie nicht nur bildlich darzustellen, sondern wirklich auch mit der ersten Route zu verknüpfen. Aus zwei Routen wird so wirklich nur eine Route. Du wirst dabei noch gefragt, ob du die zusätzliche Route am Beginn, oder am Ende der ersten Route anfügen willst.

@Guzzist said in Select multiple routes:

But there is also a tick box in front of the headline of list (it's not easy to see - you need to mousover to make it visible). But if you tick this tick box - all list itel will be ticked in one bunch. Then you may deselct some of, if needed).
That makes clean up work easy 😉

Oh yes you're right, I didn't know about that "hidden" check box 👍 🙂
It works, thanks.

@Lee-Parker-1 said in Mouse function when creating route:

ut the scroll wheel and right button do nothing.

Indeed I see some very strange things happening... Pointer works perfectly. Scroll wheel seems to zoom in erratically, and only with big steps of the wheel (and also on screen). Zooming out it does not work completely. Scrolling through menus just does not work. This is in the app and in-app planner.

In the web planner (chrome browser anyway) the zooming DOES actually work! Also the scrolling in menus works, and also the right click for the systems options menu works!

Problem is though that if you click a route in the web-planner routes page, the app opens to show the route. You can bypass that by right-clicking the route and select "open in new tab".

I think my previous experience using a mouse was in the pre-in-app-planner era ;-). It would actually be nice to have the in-app planner working with mouse too for sure!

@Manfred-Schiess plan deine rundreise und kanste edit route wehlen. Jetzt kannst du die Wegpunkte beliebig platzieren und speichern als GPX dan auf dem XT herunterladen.

@Martin-Wilcke said in Improvement request POI -> GPX:

@BertM said in Improvement request POI -> GPX:

Looking at the screenshot you made they not following the standard topografix schematic.
You can see that the symbol name is in extensions.

OSMAnd does not export a <sym> tag, right. However, as they refer to a namespace/schema (xmlns:osmand), its extension complies with Topografic's GPX Spec.

Storing data in an individual extension is a clever way to keep and share information within an ecosystem. If this GPX is re-imported into OSMAnd, the category (and symbol) will be restored.

I agree, that is also what other applications do.
But as MRA is a platform that is used by a lot of other navigations app, I do not think you would look for an platform specific schema.

Osmand pulls the POI from OSM and that is one way to do it.
On the other hand I like the MRA solution better. If they can safe the symbol by export ( and import) this will be an huge improvement.

What do you mean by "the GPX"? Any other app?

Yes
