You're welcome. Normally I plan my routes on my Mac with BaseCamp. The issue there is (I do not know how it works with other apps), that all routes are imported into OSMAND group "User", due to this value in a tag in all waypoints. Also as written above, shaping points (defined points in the route not declared as waypoints) are not imported into OSMAND.
Due to I'm currently writing a python app which solves me these two issues, plus a few goodies, by modifying GPX route file (a step between export from BaseCamp and import into OSMAND). SO far 90% works well but it's not available as an executable, just as source. Let's see when I get time to complete it. [email protected] schrieb am Donnerstag, 4.
