Straight lines in route
-
I am trying to understand why some routes only show straight lines between waypoints after opening the route in the app. It only happens for some of my routes. I make my routes in the app itself. Maybe somebody can explain? No big deal for me but would be nice to know. When I start editing or navigating the route the straight lines disappear and the proper route is displayed.
My guess is that at the time I did a save the route could not be calculated. For me it would be fine if the app would only show straight lines at startup for all routes, just to keep it consistent and simple.

I've had this.
Have you specified the mode of travel such as Motorbike or Car? if you have try switching between them. -
@Rob-Kelley Yes I have but that doesn't seem to make a difference . What DOES seem to make a difference is the setting to navigate the route as a track. Because I just had the following : Edit route shows a proper route but if I go straight to Navigate (after having selected the route from the list) some sections are straight lines but some aren't!
However when I set the setting Navigate as track to OFF the straight lines do not appear other than at the start.

Is this route by any chance marked as an offroad route in the online routeplanner? @Herman-Veldhuizen
Offroad routes are not (yet) supported and can indeed give weird results! I am investigating the possibility to support this -
@Corjan-Meijerink Not that I know . I haven't seen the off-road option. The route options were these:
I have now changed these to be 'all green' and reserved the route , but that didn't solved the problem.

@Herman-Veldhuizen can you share the link to the route? Make sure it’s public
