    When importing gpx files from other planners, always select the route-track option to import.
    When i look at your route, as @Rob-Verhoeff said, it isn't well put together

    Make sure that the routepoints are placed correct on the routeline

    I appreciate the advice.
    The POI's are not all on roads, as they are photo points for a photo rally.
    I am not clear why MRA cannot manage this situation, but have to accept it.
    I moved from Zumo 660 + Mapsource to Zumo XT + MRA - let's say the jury is still out.

      MRA can handle it, but when a notmal routepoint is placed that way, we think it is off track.
      If point 3 is a photo stop, make a viapoint of it. Then you will be forced to visit that point. And you will see the flag in your XT.

        That is good advice thanks.
        I have to learn to use such POI's as a guide while creating actual waypoints nearby for the route purpose.

        The XT presents it's own challenges.... I miss the "please drive to highlighted route" instruction which the 550 / 660 provided when you want to join a route from which you have detoured. I still do not have a consistent solution to use for this on the road. Any advice would be appreciated.

          Hello again,
          I have another route of 17 waypoints, made on MRA only, without anything imported.
          I cannot get the Expand function to work, I tried adding different numbers of waypoints (50, 100)
          Can anyone advise what is the issue preventing addition of waypoints in this way, please?

            @Laurence-2 It's working for me! There are some point that have a critical position in your route such as 13 and 3. After moving point 13 and 3 I succedes in expending the route. Sometimes you see a little gap between two points. Move that point and than it will work. You have to carefully place the points. Not on a intersection, but a little further away.

              Using your Route directly I could not Expand it!
              I have no clue why?
              Maybe one of the Dev's can look at that?
              So I saved it as a GPX1.1 (Track, POI) then re-imported it as a Route-Track.

              Expand 1.jpg

              Then when I "Edit route-track" it works.
              Expand 2.jpg

                Rob,
                I did as you said:
                Revised the waypoint locations to be away from junction, a little beyond the intersection and exactly on the route. I then was able to expand the route to 50 waypoints. This will be more secure for transfer to the XT and if I go to share the route.
                So, now I know!
                Thanks,
                Laurence

                    I'm having the same problem, I've used Espand many times with no hitch but now I am having the same issue
                    https://www.myrouteapp.com/en/social/route/7413027?mode=share

                    If it's relevanty this route was originally part of a single longer route and I split it. I suceesfully expanded the first half

                      @Simon-Wood I think your route looks a bit like a mess. What is the meaning of waypoint 4 between 12 and 13?

                      The other points ensure that a loop is constantly made. I understand that the expand function can't handle that.
