Multiple route export possibility wanted

[Gerard Wullink]

We organised a tour through Norway which holds 23 routes. When "Exporting" these routes to the GPS using the connector, you would have to do that one by one.
18 participants, 23 routes = 414 times:

• Open a route,
• Click Export
• Click Export
• Click Open route
• Click select device
• Click the selected device
• Click Export to Device.

Thats exactly 2898 clicks to go.

Requests:

• Make the Connector remember the last device type (GPX1.1 RTP) etc).
  Possible solution: Store the default device-type (same choices as Select device in connector) in the user profile. Change connector so it can be called with this default device (parameter). Very nice to have for everyone.

• Create a possibility to export multiple routes to the same device from a overview screen (as you already do with move, save as and remove). Even if this was limited to a certain number of routes it would be of great help.

It has been requested many times and is on the ToDo list for major maintenance.

@Hans-van-de-Ven-MR-MRA Nice. Is a list of wishes/issues, at least which are approved to be cretaed/fixed, available for users? Would be handy to know and saves tickets too

@Gerard-Wullink
No, not yet available to users, the development team is collecting these, they will publish them in due course and then prioritize and decide what can be achieved.

@Gerard-Wullink Until those changes have been made, it's probably a lot less work not using "Export", but "Save as" instead. This does support saving multiple routes at the same time and will give you a zip-file containing GPX files, which you can send by e-mail (or any other mechanism you like) to your fellow travellers.

@Herko-ter-Horst Hello Herko, I know the Save as option. At our MC we noticed that when using a Zumo 3/5series the result on the gps differs between the export and save as function.
Apparently the import/conversion of a saved gpx file, which is placed in the GPX dir on the GPS, differs from the export function.
If you use a saved gpx file containing Track, Route and POI the Zumo3/5 does not show hard waypoints other than Start and End of the route. If you use Export it will show them.

@Gerard-Wullink note Navigators 4/5/6, XT/XT2 work fine using the Save as method. Just the Zumo 3/5 fails.
