Overlapping routes

[Lluis Arasanz]

@Nick-Carthew

Yes, this is wright. And if you have time to "read" the screen is not a problem.

But, the same on situations with no time, you need only a visual guidance to follow. Then, is when you become upset and takes bad direction. Masking route line ahead 5km. or other amount, can be good to not be upset.

Also, I noted another issue regarding these instructions:

• when entering to a roudabout, White instruction on screen shows only how to enter. The instruction to exit is shown once you’re inside roundabout… and normally you can’t look the screen.
• on some intersections, by example turn wright and in 10 meters turn left, those instructions are showed one by one and is difficult to follow on fast look

I don’t know how easy or difficult is to show 2 or 3 next directions on white arrow.

@Tom-Grzelinski the method I use is to place a shaping or via point (it does not matter which) a little distance after each junction that I pass through along the route
if your paying any sort of attention you should know roughly the number of the next point your heading too

so when I approach a junction with a crossover for the first time I should see 2 points, one with a lower number that makes sense for me to be heading towards now & one with a much higher number that will make sense for me to be heading for when I approach the junction for the second time

it is a simple solution that works very well for me especially when combined with the dynamic view that zooms in & out automatically at junctions

Thanks Brian. My route has a lot of waypoints already, so not sure I want to add more, but I take your point. How do you get the dynamic view to work? I’m sure I had this a few days ago, but today it was definitely not zooming in at junctions which was making this problem worse.

Hi, the next version V6 contains arrows on the route line for the direction. This should help to see in which direction to drive.

Sorry night version screen.

@Tom-Grzelinski press the compass symbol, it cycles through the 3 different modes
more of an explanation here https://forum.myrouteapp.com/post/68182

@Brian-McG That explains one problem. I was having to manually zoom in and it was not going back to normal navigating view, so I kept having to press the compass to get it back. In doing so I obviously inadvertently changed the view mode. Thanks

@Jörgen Thanks, I look forward to testing this and hope it works for this problem. I am a bit skeptical whether these arrows will be visible enough when approaching a roundabout at speed and dealing with Italian traffic!

De nummers 123 etc. de ronde lichtblaue bolletje met nummer worden vaak niet altijd weergegeven op de route alleen de blauwe lijn.
Naar het vervolg punt heb ook het probleem met kruisingen en rotondes links rechts of rechtdoor waar je allemaal blauwe lijnen route ziet.
In de blauw lijn route slecht zichtbaar geel zie je 2 kleine peiltjes wat de rij richting aangeeft wat haast niet te zien is en de kans dat je tegen de route inrijdt zeer irritand gaat vaak mis in groepsverband.
Ook dat een route elkaar overlapt op een punt van de route bepaalde richting op zoals een lus in de route dan kom je weer bij de zelde kruising of rotonde of slpitsing op de route, maar je moet de andere kant op om de route te vervolgen.
Dan de poup venter links boven geeft ook niet altijd duidelijk aan welke kant op, dan de snelweg met veel wegen welke afslag zit geen rijbaan sortering op dan wel een goede popup scherm welke afslag A1 A12 etc. zoals wat in google maps weer geeft richting rijbaan volgen en welke route lijn je moet volgen ook niet duidelijk
De kleuren algemeen en teks in kleur vaak slecht leesbaar met blauwe achtergrond met geel of rode teks bijv. zoals de gele piltjes in de blauwe rote dat leest heel slecht wegens de kleur de kleur blauw zegt ook veel als achter grond wat vaak lastig lezen is net als een grijze lichte tekst op een wit achtergrond bijv. op de motor moet het wel goed leesbaar zijn dan wel de aanduiding aangezien je op bepalde afstand van het scherm zit.
We gaan het zien in versie 6 volgend jaar hoeveel er verbeterd is of niet kan ook nog, en op welk vlak.

@jeroen-ekkel-c It would be nice if everyone wrote in English, so please do the same.

There's always a white arrow in the blue route line at places where you turn, exit a roundabout, or otherwise change direction. That's why I don't understand the problem...
