Assign a via point/waypoint number

[Corrado Miniati 0]

Hi,
is there a waypoint number reassignment option in the Route Planner?
For example, on an itinerary with 20 total points, do I want to change point 5 to 10 simply by renaming the number?
So far, I've only found a way to move the point with the mouse, but if I need to move an end point to the beginning of a long list, for example, it's a long and difficult process, especially since the list scrolls jerkily when dragging (Google Chrome).

Thanks

As far as I know this is not possible. You can only change the colour and the description of waypoint.

But why do you want to renumber the waypoints?

@Corrado-Miniati-0 If you want to change the order of the shapingpoints/viapoints simply press and hold the one that you want to move and drag it to the place in de routepoints menu where you want it to be

Thanks for the advice, I'll follow your advice. Renumbering the points was convenient because moving them on the map can cause positioning errors and is extra work for the control.

Perhaps Corjan can consider this suggestion for a future update.

Thanks

I had the case the other day where after the reation of a route, I wanted to look for possible fuel stops along the way. But when I added them, they came at the end of a relative long list of shaping points, meaning I had to remember in between which points it needed to be, and then drag the new via-point up into the right position within the list.

But perhaps there is a better way to insert an additional via-point in the right spot in an existing route?

@K-De-Weerd When you add an additional route point in between others, hover the cursor over the route line until you see a black ball, then click to add the new route point. If you need to, you can then drag the new route point to the fuel station.
