The ‘Start route here’ option doesn’t seem to be working properly.

Hi Corjan,
I’d already posted this in another thread, but I can’t find it any more and I don’t think you replied there. If I’m wrong, please accept my apologies.
When I change the starting point of a route, part of the route is then missing.

@parantapa : I can understand the hint, but would suggest as a solution to set an additional WP at this point and only then press the button "Start route here".
- The problem you showed occurs because the WP are already a little further apart.
Maybe that's the idea you could run automatically.
Idea: if you click on it, a suitable WP 1 is set in the direction in which you have to start and at the same time a WPx as the last WP, that can be automated well I would believe

Thanks for the screenshots, they make it clear. Your route is a round trip (it starts and ends at home). On a round trip, "Start route here" turns the loop so it starts at that waypoint and keeps its direction: starting at waypoint 8 gives 8, 9 … 13, 1 … 7. The route then ends at waypoint 7, so the stretch from 7 back to 8 isn't part of it any more. That's the piece you're missing, and why 379 km became 373 km.
We leave it open on purpose, because where the route ends is yours to decide. Right after you press the button, a notice at the bottom of the map says where the route now ends, with an "End at the start" button. Press it and the route goes back to the new start, with the missing stretch included. The notice only stays for a few seconds, so it's easy to miss. Hubert's tip (an extra waypoint at the end) does the same thing.
If you'd rather have the route close itself automatically, let me know. We could consider that.

Isn't it possible to make these few seconds for example 10 or 15? That should give more time to read en decide!
