Walking route created with MRA
-
I recently created a walking route using MRA. As a fair amount of the route was going to be not on roads, but in trails and fields, I set the route to offroad (Toolkit > Offroad) in the Routeplanner. I then manually traced the route and placed several shaping points as well as via points, some with added notes.
When time came to use the route in the app I found a few issues:
- The track line which joins all the waypoints doesn't show in the app.
- If I tap on any of the points in the route nothing happens, so I can't see any of the notes I added to them.
If I make a copy of the route and tick off the offroad option, I can now see the route line, although it's all mangled as the app is trying to use roads for portions of the route that are meant to be off road, but I still can't get anything when I tap on the waypoints.
Am I doing something wrong? Is there a way to create a walking route that shows the route line, and also where I can get access to the notes I've added to my waypoints?

Use the OSM map, open the route and tick on the compass needle then start walking

Thank you for your reply.When you say "tick on the compass" I assume you mean the icon on the bottom left of the app? If so, that's what I was already doing. When I to that I don't see the trail lines, and I don't get anything when I tap on the waypoints.

Right, just follow the line

@Hans-van-de-Ven-MR-MRA But that's just the thing. I don't see a line. I have to scroll around until I find the next waypoint, but there's no line connecting them

Did you create a route?

The route must be made using the planning map from OpenStreetMap and you must have By foot (walking) selected as transport mode.
Open the route and tap the location marker twice, (I have arrowed it in my screenshot) then as you walk the map will move with you as you follow the line. There are no turn by turn navigation instructions.
