Hello Bart, thanks for checking mt gpx route. I think it is normal that a calculated route is OSmAnd wil be different from the track on an imported gpx-file. The file is created in an other program thats probably uses different navigation settings.
I tried yesterday to create a route with OsmAnd alone, as Paul suggested. I noticed that the intermediate points were shown by a flag on the map. After saving the track/route and reloading it the intermediate points were shown as a circle with a star in it. The imported gpx-file does not show symbols on the map for the route points. So there must be a difference in the saved OsmAnd gpx-file and the imported gpx-file. Perhaps thats can be a cause for the routing problems. Creating a route in OsmAnd was not easy at first. But after a while I got the hang of it. Creating a new intermediate point or a new destination works ok. In the beginning I made a lot of mistakes so I started again many times. For my purpose, creating a route (100km +) on smaller roads this method does not work very good. To get an overview I have to zoom out. But then the smaller roads are not displayed. So I have to zoom in to see the smaller roads again And the zooming in and out has to been done many times. OsmAnd also regarly moves the map back to the starting point which is inconvenient. I find it difficult to place an intermediate point accurately. During experimenting I experienced that OsmAnd sometimes refuses to let me pass certain points and creates a detour. I do not know why. I saved a route and oepned it again. The I wanted to make some changes but I could not change te intermediate points (circle with star). Adding intermediate points at the end of the route did not work properly. I experienced similar strange route guidance as in my tests on the motorbike. I also found out that I was able to add a new destination to the saved route but I was not able to add a new intermediate point. I saw the flag on the screen but this point was not part of the calculted route. So my experience with adding intermedate points and new destination points in OsmAnd is not good. I think the experience will be much better when you create shorter routes. Navigating the track without calculating the route between point does work very good for me. I think that will the way I navigate tracks for the moment. But I hope there will be more progress in the future. Thanks for the support!!
