Re: No Maps on the Basecamp - Urgent help

I would guess that was because you reinstalled Basecamp. That means that you got rid of all of the registry entries which tells Basecamp where to look for the files. Even if the maps are actually on the computer - Your new installation of Basecamp doesn't know where they are. When doing this - alway...

Re: Trip Planner Routes

Just had another quick look at my screen shots. I think you are right. I am wrong. Sorting is by date / time only. Proximity doesn't come into it. I was fooled by one of the screen shots whic supported my beliefs - but the others didn't. I'm getting careless in my old age !

Re: Trip Planner Routes

Hmmm. So your undated routes are at the top, but not in order of distance to the start point ? Ok - I'll look a bit harder. I was hoping to have some screen shots from my other Zumos. In fact the 595 behaved exactly like the XT, so it must be the 590 that puts the routes under date headings. My 590 ...

Re: Trip Planner Routes

Not ignoring your last post - but I had already started to build some tests. Initial findings are slightly different from what I expected on the XT. Imported routes with no date set are shown at the top of the list. They are in order proximity to the start point. Routes with date/time set then follo...

Re: How to display custom POIs on the map

I've been away for a short while so could not come back to this. I have succeeded in making my own icons and having them show on the map. The spec says that these should be 24x24 - which is very riny on an XT screen. They should also alert as you get near, but so far I can only get them to alert whe...

Re: Trip Planner Routes

Ok. So that isn't the issue then ! Not to worry, that is an excellent answer should anyone ask the right question.

Back to the square one. I'll see if I can reproduce the issue. I have tested this before and what I tried produced what I expected. But that might have been the problem ....

Re: Trip Planner Routes

I don't know if the original post (by burtsr was referring to Basecamp's Trip Planner App, or whether he was just importing gpx files into the Trip Planner app on the XT. We have covered that issue, but I think that you are using the Basecamp Trip Planner App - as you said Peobody ? For anyone else ...

Re: Trip Planner Routes

I think if other routes are involved, and these do not have a time/date then proximity of the first point to the current position is used to decide upon the order. This method is used for sorting Waypoints/Favourites - so the order is forever changing if you look at the list of favourites on differe...

Re: XT2 Recalculate Woes. Looking for workaround...

Did you get anywhere with this issue?

Is there any evidence that it is trying to get you back to its original route first ?

Re: Trip Planner Routes

Sorry. I was talking about my 'trip' ie my holiday. My holiday consisted of a number of individual routes - one per day, usually with a couple of bad weather or fatigue alternatives. Sorry, I slipped into my own terminology, forgetting that 'Trip' had implications to Garmin devices. The start of eac...
