Hi,
When you import a GPX file after downloading a Route and importing a GPX file to convert to a Personal TREK.
It seems you have to edit the file and change each location to a CAR travel instead of Plane beforsaving the route as personal.
Is their an easier way ?

No, you don't have to edit every location individually. When converting an imported GPX track to a Personal TREK on ExplorOz, you can usually use the route editing
tools to change the travel mode for multiple places/legs at once rather than opening each waypoint separately. Look for options such as bulk edit, route settings, or recalculate route after importing.
If the GPX imports with all segments set to "Plane," it's often because the GPX file contains track points rather than routable road segments. In that case, you may need to recalculate the route using the desired vehicle mode (Car/4WD), but you shouldn't have to manually change every point.

This is very time consuming to convert GPX to a Personal trek/track. Not sure how you select multiple points to convert to driving ?
Some of the points you need to convert to walking or cycling to follow the roads?
