How to navigate a track?
-
I'm a bit confused and wonder if development was running in a strange direction with "navigate route as track"...?
I know the sense of this, but my intention is, to get a gpx file which contains a track only and navigate by this.If I import such a file as Track or as Route-Track - the result is always the same - no matter which preferences I select: I get always a blue and a white line, if I start navigation with. That's annoying! I know, I should follow in this case the white line. But this forces unnecessary extra concentration!
The only mitigation I found is: select this Track or Route-Track for navigation, but start as "free ride"! Result: you will get only a blue line and you can navigate by clearly following the line (as usually for track navigation).Same issue is reported by @Martin Wilcke https://forum.myrouteapp.com/post/75062
Second issue: if gpx files contains waypoints <wpt> (POI), the import procedure operates that like stepchilds!
In case, gpx is imported as track, this points will never be imported!
In case, gpx is imported as Route-Track, this points will never be imported!
In case, gpx is imported as Route, this points will be imported as shaping points!
But why? The export procedure does it correctly.
