Shape Point transfer by gpx
EXPORT and IMPORT of Shape Points exclusively to be used in the Locus (re)PLANNER(all) !
Locus route priority (auto)recalculate method generally works more performant now. So the steering (PLANNER) Shape Points are more important than ever before.
Large(r) screen (trim)design by Tablet<>Pc<>Phone, easy exchange by intermediate gpx file (dropbox) do not support Shape Point transfers.
In attached rte_navrtept gpx file find <type>Shape at rtept 40.
Import gpx into Locus. No need to select merge points with track ! * Free selection !
According to the direct route rules by Beta 3.38.7.4 Locus actually promotes this into Via Point.
To do: Locus detects by <type>Shape this to be a Shape Point.
IMPORT adaption is probably relatively simple, but Locus should also EXPORT into rte format.
* Free ! Attached in gpx is also one simple non directional (isolated) wpt/poi point. Simple wpt's (poi's) do not serve any route directional navigation activity
Good day Willy,
why you consider as important to transfer also shaping points over GPX? Because once route is saved in route planner, shaping point no longer exists and have absolutely no effect on navigation system!
The second point is that some kind of "web planner" is more and more in our internal discussions and we probably start work on this in next months, so the process of plan & transfer of routes between web & devices should be really simplified. At least I believe it will be :).
