      Is there any update on this feature? It has been requested for more than three years now. Is it still on the wishlist?

      Being able to change the route line color would greatly improve navigation, especially in daytime mode and when using satellite maps, where the current contrast often makes the route difficult to see.

      Thank you.

        @Franxu I can only support this request.
        When using the satellite map, the blue line is very difficult to make out.

          It would be so helpful. Satelite map is not really of use when the route is not visable.

            The difficulty lies in that the colors already change, based on traffic information. Blue turns into orange to red based on traffic density. Also the colors have a meaning: blue line is calculated route / yellow line is tracked route / white line is original route. Customizing colors would mess things up very badly. Besides, the sattelite map does not strike me as preferable map to navigate on anyway, but that might be a matter of taste πŸ˜‰

            I am just an enthusiastic MRA user, and hope you will be one too!

              I understand the issue with traffic colors and the meaning associated with each route color. However, I'm not suggesting unlimited color customization.

              What I mean is having a single high-contrast alternative option for the calculated route, such as pink or magenta (as used by some other navigation apps). This would make the route much easier to see on satellite maps and in certain daytime conditions, while keeping all the other colors unchanged.

              The traffic colors (orange/red), the tracking route color (yellow), and the original route color (white) could remain exactly as they are today. The idea is simply to provide an optional high-contrast mode that improves visibility without affecting the existing color scheme or the meaning of the other route indicators.

                  for me the white line is important but not always good to see. i never use tracking.... so for me i would like to switch them. but that will not happen so i have my alternative to have trackline always good te see. not all tools can be perfect for everybody. i accept that and i found a solution that fits my need.

                    Thank you all for your replies! I do not use satellite mode to navigate, but I do enjoy creating routes using the various maps available in MRA. Satellite map is definitely one of them. MRA is a great program, and it is not a big deal, but it does occasionally bother me (just a little πŸ˜‰).

                      In my view, however, it is precisely this view (Wong) & Satellite that offers very detailed streets and locations; even if I want to zoom in or out because I might be looking for an alternative route, it’s easier to find with this view.

                      With Garmin, for example, you could set a bold magenta colour.

                      Why shouldn’t that also be possible in MRA?
