getting rid of waypoints?
« on: May 03, 2009, 01:01:36 PM »
I've had an ongoing issue, when I make a network from multiple files the program adds hundreds of waypoints to the completed track.
I don't need or want the waypoints, I'm just using the tracks as a reference and not as active navigation.
I usually delete the waypoints manually but I'm getting tired of this process. I can't find any reference for this issue in the forums or in the help files.
Their has to be a better way, I have turned of the waypoints in the menus but it still shows them in 3d mode.
I'm running version 3.38

Thanks in advance, Eric S ???

If you open up the "File Properties" dialog on the file you can then go to the waypoints tab (might need to hit the Fill Table button to make everything appear).  Then you can select every waypoint (shift click) and delete them all in one swoop.

Also, you can turn off 3d waypoints via a separate toggle -- it's in options->3d options.

Finally, a check box to turn on/off waypoint generation when creating a network makes sense.  I'll add it to the todo list.

Thanks (and sorry about the delay, I've been out on the trail).
