Re: Transferring GPX-files to the XT including Tracks and Waypoints with distinguished Symbols

Now why am I not surprised, things don't do in Garmin software, what they say and should
Thanks anyhow, I will test the Basecamp-method, though I try to avoid Basecamp. (It lacks the detail for offroad riding apparently. At least as far as I have seen.)
Also it"s enough to sturggle with explore web and the device itself. As you saw in my entry post, already a simple task like importing GPX-Tracks in a proper way took me some days. If every step needs as much attention and methodical research as the GPX-import stuff, that's gonna burn a lot of time.
So far I just ride to a Tack, arrive at the end, then let myself navigate to the next Track. Interestingly Tracks converted to Routes on the XT device do not navigate me turn by turn at all. That's fine by me, but I red somewhere, they would?
Asafar as I can see the results of my own testing on the GPX-import topic the Garmin way of programming (and wording/naming) is as inconsequent and inpredictible as you can get with still something that somehow works
The big question is just as always... how (properly)? There are many ways, but each of them has different outcomes
