Hi have built several tracks from driving around in the past. I can even view them again easily enough. What I cant do is then find the ability to navigate and select Direction's to driver the route again. The squiggly line which is usually in the top right corner just doesnt seem to be on the screen anywhere?

You should be looking in TREKS

Hi Y62

From your screen shots you have saved some track logs from your journeys. I’m not aware that you can use these for navigation, more just for viewing where you have been.

If (as you say) , have built them, that would be a Trek that could be used for navigation, this is where the squiggly line comes in. (Join the waypoints to make a Trek.)

If you did actually make a Trek, prior to driving them, then yes they should be in Treks.

Regards

Trevor is correct - "Track Logs" (whether these are recorded from past trips or have been imported as files) do not offer the ability for route guidance - that is a feature of "Treks" only. Because they are different, they have different names. The two are not the same.

"Treks" can only be created in the Traveller app using computer generated driving calculations - this is how the navigation prompts are built.

Track Logs are only ever displayed on the map as a track line which you simply follow if you want to retrace your steps. Locate your Track Log in your Data menu - swipe left then tap the Folder icon and assign it to a Folder (new or existing). Then go to your map - open Map Layers - select Folders - keep All Folders or select the specific Folder you added it to. Now you can view your Track Log on the map.
