@Con-Hennekens I know but I am questioning wether this should always be the case. If the behaviour is configurable then it can be as it is today but be changed by the user. This would allow shape points to be just points to shape the route with no side effects on for example what gets displayed (time to next stop, zooming). And possible stops can then be via points.

@Jos-Hendrikx for motorcycle, you can get a Chigee Aio-5 Play and it has his own bar controller that works with Android Auto / Car Play !

@Corjan-Meijerink
I’m assuming you mean the CI BMW controller can’t pan within MRA as it does pan with Google Maps, Waze, Locus, DMD2, so the functionality is there just not chosen to do this with the buttons within MRA set up? In my view the panning function is used more when navigating than the current button functions.
The links from the Manual controllers sections seem like they don’t work, I get ‘Page you were looking for doesn’t exist’! When selecting the individual controller sections.

@Brian-McG I carved out some time today and ran the route again. This time with a version where I added a 2 more shaping points as circled:

That did the trick, and Offline mode for the route worked. Waypoint #12 is too close after the turn, so I didn't get an audio announcement, but I was more concerned with simply forcing the turn on the correct street.

In the nutshell, Offline is functional, but the assumption I had regarding an MRA route calculating the same both online and offline (all the time) is incorrect. The lesson for me is to load up (or just plain overload) on shaping points to leave nothing to chance. I still think there should be some kind of alert when the calculations are different, but I feel comfortable continuing with offline navigation when needed. Thanks again for your input.
