Re: Making Track visible on the Map

I rely on voice instructions for long stretches, so I can easily miss seeing the track diverge from my route. Using a wide, black track puts a border on the route, giving me reassurance that I am still on route. If I don't see the border when I do look at the screen, I know I've gone astray. I've a...

How Do I Remove Excess Themes?

When I look at my XT I have themes' names repeated, sometime 3 times. How do I delete the copies? When I look at my XT when connected to my computer I see only one of each so I'm not sure how to clean out the extras. I'd like to show some screenshots but it seems my laptop doesn't do that anymore, a...

Re: Basecamp and via points/shaping points

Not sure if this is your issue but note that you cannot change via BaseCamp routes on your device, you need to make the changes before sending the route. Yet another reason to store routes on the SD card and not in internal memory ;) . Points can be changed in a route stored on my device's SD card ...

Re: Basecamp and via points/shaping points

Thank you, but that does not seem to work for me. I'm attaching 3 screen caps. The first is the list of points. You can see that they are grey, but the title says that they are via points. Ignore the title. Trust me. The second shows the window when I right click on one of those points. You can see...

Re: Basecamp and via points/shaping points

In Base Camp, the bottom left pane, you can double click your route name to open a box. The bold text indicates a via (alerting) point and the grayed out ones are shaping (unannounced) points. You can change from one to the other by right clicking the point. In that box, you can also tick "cent...

Re: Locking device for the XT

Do either of you lock the mount to the bike as well? I do not. Don't see the point since the mount is basically hardwired. I've always gotten the impression that thievery from motobikes is much worse over yonder than it is here in The States. Europeans always talk about cut cables and helmet straps...

Re: mappa Michelin

in fact that would be what I would like to avoid! plan only in basecamp and not make the itinerary on an app and then check it again on basecamp, but basecamp has no references for example on scenic roads or anything else to travel, or at least, I haven't seen or understood them yet... consider tha...

Re: Adding Symbols to your route and create collections

Nobody tried it? Am I the only one with this need? You may be. I prefer cleaner & simpler routes. Your map already look cluttered to me in your posted map screenshot, I can't imagine stuffing all that onto a small gps screen. I like to delete more of the symbols and labels for when I zoom in. I...
