TopoFusion Basic / Re: Combined tracks, direction arrows mixed, how to make them all same direction

Thanks Scott, I'll try those tricks. I may be slow, but eventually trainable! I do turn off all but tracks to be joined, so none hiding.

Problem with upgrade failing is my anti-virus, so no action needed there.

Not sure re Draw sticking in Draw mode, no other key held down. I s-u-s-p-e-c-t that my touch pad may be involved, maybe static buildup. Only thing I can think of. Will test further.

Appreciate the help!

TopoFusion Basic / Re: Combined tracks, direction arrows mixed, how to make them all same direction

Scott thanks,

Spent last hour re building GPX from tracks. I've got three tracks, one goes (arrows) east, one west, and a drawn track in between. No out and back.

Join tool, click on west track, then click on east track and get line going off to other end.
 - Right click on Reverse track, and get another line going askew before I can do anything else (from raw track end where I click,  to one or other original track ends - like if raw ends are points a an b, and other ends are c an d, then I get a line from a to d, or a to c, etc).
- Right click and erase last line gets rid of all changes, and am back to where I started.

If I try clicking on east track first, then west track, same weird lines. Any amount of trying to reverse track results in lines being drawn askew.

Also, drew line to join tracks, line goes same direction that one track goes - Try to join tracks and zap! same askew lines.

Is there any way to reverse the arrow direction of just one track, and save it that way BEFORE joining?

 (Several times now when I am drawing tracks, right clicking to save drawn track does not bring up Save menu, and no way to escape Draw function, have to close and reopen TF losing drawn track)

I've attached the three files I am trying to combine into one master file in case there is something wrong with them.. The 'Mt Lassen...' file is considered my master, as it will be the final version. The Verdi Junk is the one I drew, trying to join Mt Lassen and the 'Edgewood...' tracks.

No major rush, as I am mapping out a bikepacking route and will be riding segments this and next year.

Anyway, thanks!
Glen

TopoFusion Basic / Combined tracks, direction arrows mixed, how to make them all same direction

« on: September 29, 2018, 11:11:52 AM »

Running Basic version 5.48 (can't upgrade to 5.51 as installer errors out at 'small-city.gpx' writing file)

Combined two tracks and saved as new track (each had arrows in different directions) and joined with third drawn track in between, and now have direction arrows in two directions. If I cut track, select and right click 'reverse track', I then get a line way off to the joneses, joining start or end of one track with cut end. Tried all right click reverse combos, like reverse last, with and without display arrows enabled, and no luck.

When I click on track, I get the original distance and elevation profile only from original tracks, depending on where on new track I click (yes, original tracks are deselected in display) and not combined track stats.

Tried recreating from original tracks, and reversing one track first, same problem as the actual arrows do not reverse, just the elevation profile.

Any way to a) Eliminate arrows entirely (track is intended to be traveled either way so there is no need for direction), or b) make them all same direction?

Anyone want pile of hair I've pulled out? 

Thanks
