Segment function with the HERE map
-
Could the option to select a "curviness" level for a route segment—similar to how it works in the TomTom routing engine—be implemented for the HERE map/routing engine?
I ask because when using the TomTom engine, the map becomes cluttered with a large number of grey waypoints, making it difficult to see them clearly or locate the specific one you need; for a motorcyclist, scrolling through such a long list is certainly not very convenient.
The segment-based functionality in the HERE engine is not as customizable as it is in the other engines.
Is it possible to consider further development in this regard?
@Emanuele-5, A pretty easy workaround is to plan on the TT engine, use the compare function in the toolkit (yes the toolkit, NOT the compare in the menu itself!) make HERE equal an then switch the engine to HERE. This function adds shaping points automatically, in order to make the routes equal on both (or all three) engines.

Thanks for your reply MotoCon. I was actually testing this just last night; however, when you go to navigate the route using the Navigator app (which uses HERE maps), you end up with a very long list of shaping points (in gray). If you need to view a specific waypoint from the waypoint menu, it becomes quite inconvenient to scroll through that list—especially while riding a motorcycle.
Do you follow my line of reasoning? -

@Emanuele-5 You missed the last part of @motocon instructions. After you have finished using the TT engine, switch back to HERE.

Most motorcycle problems are caused by the nut that connects the handlebar to the saddle.

@MotoCon I followed your advice to switch the routing engine back to HERE, but when I start navigating a route with the Navigator app, I notice that it has created a very long list of shaping points—doesn't this happen to you too?

@Nick-Carthew I followed the suggestion and put the routing engine back in here. However, when I start navigating using the navigator app, the number of waypoints becomes very large. Does this happen to you as well?
I’ve attached some example screenshots to see if this is just happening to me—perhaps I’m doing something wrong?
The 8-point items have become 125.

That seems like an awful lot indeed.

@MotoCon Doesn't the same thing happen to you if you give it a try?

@Emanuele-5, No, but I am running into other problems using the compare function that make the comparison to your experience irrelevant. I'll try again later.

@MotoCon Thanks, I look forward to the result of your test.
