I am now getting the hang of the ability to create folders and sub-folders, within MyRoute. It’s handy as I can now put all my Le Mans stuff in one folder, with a sub-folder for each year and all my Spa stuff in another folder, with a sub-folder for each year. That it’s cloud based, it means that I can access them all on any device capable of accessing the internet. Other bods will no doubt create their folders differently or not have folders at all. That doesn’t matter one jot, just use any method that works for you.
Similarly, I am slowly but surely getting the hang of creating bespoke routes. The easiest way, for me at least, on an iPad is to:
1. Ask MyRoute for an A to B route, start point to end point. As with BaseCamp, I don’t have any of the routing preferences turned on.
2. I then shape the route by inserting shaping points (MyRoute calls them, waypoints) to force the black route line along certain roads. The downside of this method is that MyRoute lists the waypoints (and as such creates the route) in the order that the waypoints are created. In my simple example of A to B, then shaped with a waypoint C between the two, the route offered up would become:
Original route: A (start point) to (end point) B
Shaped route: Original A to B but now ending at C, the waypoint between A and B
This is easy enough to resolve as you can drag the waypoints in their list, altering their positions. Recalculation is really fast.
I haven’t yet found a way on my iPad to:
1. Ask MyRoute to reorder the waypoints into a logical sequence
2. Drag the black line by hand, as you can in say Google maps or BaseCamp['/QUOTE]
I believe you just hold the Pencil or finger tip on the route until a little circle appears. Then, without taking the Pencil off the screen, you just drag the little circle to the point you want as a new waypoint to shape the route
