How to?: See multiple "Route-Tracks" in a single "Route-Track" overview

[KME]

Hi MRA forum,

Enjoying MRA Gold for quite some time now and this is my first post out here.

My question:
How can I create an overview in MRA that contains multiple Tracks?

Context:
Through time i'm creating and collecting all kinds of Tracks. These Tracks only contain the absolute highlights I want to drive (mostly offroad sections). When planning for the trip, I'm trying to figure out a nice yet efficient itinerary to visit those seperate Tracks. Therefore, It would be great to have all Tracks available in one map overview.
I know I can show all those seperate Tracks on my Garmin Zumo but that's a clumsy device to play around in for trip planning... it is slow and lacks a lot of the handy MRA Gold features (e.g. Streetview and the various map layers etc.)

Any tips are welcome.
Regards, Korneel

@kme Take a look at this thread for a few ideas.

@kme As it’s currently not possible to view multiple routes and tracks in Routeplanner, how about using the strengths of different platforms?

Assuming you have access to a PC or laptop and have/can install Garmin BaseCamp, you could use the PC/laptop to transfer the tracks from Routeplanner to a folder in BaseCamp, or install your tracks from Routeplanner onto your Garmin using Connector and view them in Basecamp - they could also be copied to BaseCamp from there, or you could save them in Routeplanner and email them to yourself for installation in BaseCamp.

With all viewed in BaseCamp, you could then plan an efficient itinerary linking your tracks and export the result back into Routeplanner, refine it using the inbuilt street view feature etc and enjoy the great convenience of being able do this while viewing on your mobile devices.

I usually open a new route and add the segments I want into it like this:

Then screenshot it and print it on paper or to a PDF writer. Only restriction is that added routes do not get saved to the new route. But I use these only to have some visualization of our trip.

@con-hennekens Clicking on the + button after choosing a route will add that route to the existing route.

[Con Hennekens]

@nick-carthew, Yes, but that makes one route of all the segments, and that is not what TS wants. It would ruin the overwiew of the daytrips.

@con-hennekens I was referring to this sentence in your post above: " Only restriction is that added routes do not get saved to the new route."

[Con Hennekens]

@nick-carthew, I understand, but the benefit of having them NOT integrated in an actual route, is that you can give them separate colors to show an overview of a multi-day trip. However saving the (pseudo)route does not save the settings of the added routes. No problem for me, but could be a nice feature for some.

Thank for the feedback y'all. Will work my way around it.
