      Just to summarize what I have learned.
      Make a route in MRA with Here map using shape points.
      Making sure to have the first point when leaving a bit further down the road to make sure that the route starts.
      Widen the and colour the track with the garmin settings.
      Save as 1.2
      Question: When using shaping points and I place one next to a petrol station and name it Petrol and add a symbol of a petrol station, will it appear and can I select it when navigating or do I have to make a via point?

      @Simon-James-Hancock You would have to make it a via point. Shaping points simply shape the route. There are no shaping points in the route section of a 1.2 .gpx file. There are just gpx lat/lon coordinates.

        As I understand it if I make it a via point I will have to stop there otherwise will be rerouted back.
        I just want to add the location of petrol stations for referance when I might need them along the route.
