Icone Waypoint

[Aiello antonino]

Hi everyone, I have a database of my waypoints added to MRA. I've assigned a different icon to each of them, as the system allows. When you add one of these waypoints as a POI to a route in the planner, these icons change to a teardrop icon. Isn't it possible for the POI to appear with the same icon you selected in the collection/list when you add it to the route? For example: This is the icon chosen.
This is the icon after adding it to the path

No. Mra doesn't have that option you're asking about.

Mine was meant to be a suggestion

@Aiello-antonino, yes, therefore it's in the suggestions category
I like this suggestion, and to be honest I think it is a (small) omission that it does not already take the icon of the original POI.

Let's hope they fix it then! Talk to the administrators if you know them.…

Kann mich dem nur anschliessen. Wäre schön, wenn die Wegepunkte das eingestellte POI-Symbpl bekommen. Noch ein weiterrer Vorschläg wäre, das man die Farbe der Route ändern kann. Schwarz ist auf Hybridkarten nicht immer gut zu erkennen.

One additional thing with the icons of POI: if users enters POIs to a route - no matter if selected from MRA POI list, or entered manually and giving a dedicated icon - why in the exported gpx file are all POI gets the same description?!
Example:

<wpt lon="12.6679399" lat="49.2024777">
<name>Motorrad Dirnberger</name>
<type>user</type>
<extensions>wptx1:WaypointExtensionwptx1:Proximity100</wptx1:Proximity>wptx1:DisplayModeSymbolAndName</wptx1:DisplayMode></wptx1:WaypointExtension>gpxx:WaypointExtensiongpxx:Proximity100</gpxx:Proximity>gpxx:DisplayModeSymbolAndName</gpxx:DisplayMode></gpxx:WaypointExtension></extensions>
</wpt>

Why <type>user</type> but no symbol?

Other Navi devices/apps expects to display a specific symbol something like:
<wpt lat="49.202631214664" lon="12.66770801368">
<name>Motorrad Dirnberger</name>
<sym>Repair</sym>
</wpt>

It's important for longer well planned journeys, to see on map the well prepared POI in an easy way. But if all of them are "standardised" and looks identical - the unnecessary hard to read!

Just to help the international audience, I’ll translate Gerd’s post a bit:
“I also see the need to be able to clearly identify the POIs entered into a route. In addition, I think it would be good to be able to change the color of the route: The black routes are sometimes hard to see on the hybrid maps.”

@Gerd-Teubel Sorry, if I mistranslated something.
