Dear all!
First of all: Thank you for this piece of software! It’s awesome.
(I really like it more than locusmap and osmAND)
One issue with the export of (normal) gpx-files occured:
The waypoints (WPT) are used to mark specific locations on a route. The <type> attribute in the XML definition by Topografix specifies the type of waypoint. Beside others there are:
<type>via</type>: This type is used to mark waypoints that serve as intermediate stops on a route.<type>shaping</type>: This type is used to mark shaping points that influence the shape of the route but do not represent actual stops. These points help to shape and optimize the route without requiring the user to stop at these points.
This works very well with the “Via Points” and “Shaping Points” in kurviger.de. However - in the gpx-export also the shaping-points are exported as via-points.
It is very easy to test this issue. Just create a small route and export the WPT and the RTE (see screenshot) Especially WPT 2 and WPT 3 should be of type shaping and not of type via.
Please note: By exporting via “Garmin ShapingPoint” the waypoints inside the route (!) are labeled correctly (so the first after the start and the last before the end are always “via-points”, that ist correct). However the waypoints in the waypoint-section are still not ok.
It sounds like a minor issue, but it is a fundamental export feature and important for reliable import into many other systems.
