    Hi All,

    I am having great success with MRA and exporting routes to the Zumo XT for my motorcycle. However, when I export a route all the intermediate waypoints appear to be "shaping points" - which is fine in most cases as the Garmin doesn't alert when they are approaching which is what I normally want.

    However - I would like some of them to alert me to how far away they are. For example, I might place a waypoint at a possible coffee stop halfway along the route, and get alerted when approaching it so I can make a decision as to whether to stop or not.

    I don't really want to split the route and have to load a new route if I go past the stop.

    Is this possible?

      No, this is not possible at this time. Maybe in the future
