Suggestion: Route Auto Name

[Rob Kelley]

Hi
Would it be possible to auto create a route name when creating a new route?
For example, I create a new route from 'Home' (POI) to a destination such as Elan Valley Visitors Center (one of my fave places) so the first and last Waypoints are named 'Home' and 'Elan Valley Visitors Center' - could these Waypoints be used to create a suggested route name '1 Home to Elan Valley Visitors Center' that can be changed if needed.

Fun suggestion!

Thissounds nice, it gives you an idea of route at the start instead of New route. Would be nice to have , if it's easy to deploy.

I thought the name was assigned before any waypoints are added to the route ... so how would this work?

@RetiredWingMan I should think as soon as two points are made a name?

If you want to refine it, we often name routes using approximate direction and distance too, which may help identify routes that don't start or stop in 'obvious' places. Example:
Home -> Elan 340Km NW

(Even circular routes often have a vague direction bias - as in they're not perfect circles.)

As an aside from auto-naming, it's also a good way to exclude routes with a quick glance (I don't want to do more than 300Km today - what routes can I choose from?).
