Re: RouteConverter. Nice program, open source. I had the best luck
exporting a GPX as a route (as opposed to points-only). After I imported
the GPX to OsmAnd and used it to navigate ("Follow track" in options),
OsmAnd calculated its own route, but from my current position, not the
beginning of the GPX. I could then specify a new starting point by
selecting it on the map. Is that your experience too, or am I missing
something?
