how to force a route to take shortest distance between two waypoints

[David Ghosh]

when entering a new waypoint on a route how do i force myroute to use the shortest distance between the previous way point and the current waypoint i am trying to set?

sometimes i experience myroute retracing the route backwards and doing a large loop between the previous waypoint and the current waypoint i am trying to set.

@David-Ghosh You'll find that in the roolkit under RouteOptimalisation, then choose fastest

@David-Ghosh Add a route point on the roads that you want to use is the best option.

faire attention aux fermetures saisonnières par exemple les col

avec la carte HERE , vous avez la possibilité de les déactiver

Bonne journée

@LE-DIZES-Freddy yes in the tolbox you can deactivate seasonal close

@David-Ghosh when something like that happens, 90% chance it's due to that particular street situation (one-way street, off-road, seasonal closure, limited traffic etc). So make sure settings are all good.
If nothing of this helps, the way to force a straight line is to press the waypoint and then select "skip" .
