Got a question about any other routing software that you use for creating routes and transferring to your Zumo? Then post in here and we will try our best to help

I had a look at the site. Looks 'Scandinavian oriented' to me. Can you use it practically when you're not a 'pro user'? (We from Holland dont like to pay!)
The export is first available as a 'pro user', so I just signed up as export is essential to me, so I am not sure how useful it is without being 'pro user'.... and you are right, mostly Scandinavian.
Same here in Denmark, do not like to pay, so mostly on open software, so therefore only on MSWin when absolutely necessary, for example when finding a great tool like the TripManager

Amazing, this is now working ...what a quick response
You're welcome. Any other feedback you have is also welcome, that includes the docs.
As mentioned in the Docs, it needs to be tested, and likely, updated for the XT2. I myself only have the XT at my disposal. If you know people owning an XT2 and dont mind experimenting, convince them to try TripManager.
@FrankB, on 7 February I claimed that a skip recalc resulted in a change in the route. That claim was incorrect. I re-road that route and experienced the same deviation from track that I did on my last ride, when I did a skip. There was no skip on this ride. I finally figured out that the deviation was there all along. It took full zoom to see it when comparing track to route. I apologize for not having dug as deeply as possible when I first looked at this.

I apologize
Not needed at all. But accepted.
Edit: As a side note: Meanwhile I saw a few posts from @jfheath that pressing 'Skip', will recalculate the entire route, often with a very different outcome. One of the reasons why I use VIA points sparingly,

Yes, but TripManager triggers a calculation on first load of a transferred trip so I think it fair to assume that a recalculation triggered by a 'Skip' will be the same as the original calculation. Of coarse all bets are off when routes are recalculated as a result of a map update. Two of eleven of mine ended up being different following the update to CN NA NT 2026.10. I did not see a logical reason for the new route going the way it did. Maybe in the new map the speed limit had been increased on the newly selected roads.
I must say that fixing those two routes by shaping them on the XT was very easy. I duplicated those fixes in Basecamp (added the shaping points) but did not bother doing another transfer. I don't recall doing a recalculation in Basecamp before adding the shaping points so I don't know whether Basecamp would have produced the same route change.
