POI
-
@Martin-Garand, look one message up...
@Con-Hennekens I tried that. But when using POI that way, I cannot see those POI unless i'm zoomed in really close.
If I'm zoomed out for a better overview, those POI don't show.
But if my POI are in the Manage section, I can see them even at an overview zoom. But to be able to have POI in Manage section, you have to have created them in that route.
Maybe I'm missing somtehing or don't understand how to use those POI...

@Martin-Garand There is a very good reason why POIs are not visible when you are zoomed out, some POIs would block the map!
Always willing to help if I can.

@Nick-Carthew I understand that.
But, maybe with explanation of what I'm trying to do it will be more clear.
I'm planning a 3 weeks trip and I made a POI list of all the place I want to go.
If the POI are created in the route I'm planning (Manage section), I can always see them.
But if I export the POI and reuse them within the Library, I can't see them unless I'm zoomed in really close.
So I can't share my POI Library unless I always reuse the first route in which I Managed all the POI.
Is there another way to do it ?

I am afraid not, at least not in the current web-planner.

It would be perfect if we could choose at which zoom level the POIs are visible. For example, when I want to search for campsites, I have to zoom in a lot, which isn’t helpful because I want to look around my route. If I zoom in too much, I might miss a campsite that’s there but not visible due to the zoom level.

I did a test by adding the POIs for the mountain passes in Trentino and Veneto, Italy.
They’re already visible at this zoom level, which I think is enough to see most of a route.The marked road is 288 km long, while the straight-line distance between the two points is 155 km — in my opinion, that’s sufficient to get a clear overview of a good portion of the route.

I have good memories of Mezzolombardo. I used to fill up at the Shell gas station there.

It’s different for POIs that you import yourself and different for the points of interest that the MyRoute Planner website provides. In the first case, it’s as you described, but in the second one, you have to zoom in quite a lot to see them. I don’t know why this happens.

I understand exactly the issue you are having. Library POIs are only visible from a zoom level of 5 miles (10 km) or closer. If you are zoomed out to get a macro view of your route, you can't see the Library POIs.
You need to do what I do. Create a POI folder and in that POI folder create empty routes that only contain "Managed" POIs, which you manually add to the empty route.
Now, when you want to create a new route, just "copy" your POI route file and work from that. Now you will be able to see your managed POIs at any zoom level. Any POIs that seem to be cluttering up your route, can be quickly deleted. Going forward, always start your route creation by copy one of your empty route POI files.
