Title: Navigation along a route vs Guidance Along a Route
Post by: GusGF on July 28, 2021, 15:18:56
First of all I've read 'Guidance Along a Route (https://docs.locusmap.eu/doku.php?id=manual:user_guide:functions:guidance#guidance_along_a_route)' and it states:
QuoteYou are guided to the first point of the route, then to the second etc. It is useful e.g. for sailing, sea-kayaking, flying or crosscountry hiking when there are no roads for turn-by-turn navigation.
But then above and below this it has pictures of a town/city with roads and a route being followed??!   ::)

So what point is the author trying to make here because this is downright confusing?


I've recorded a route which I then want to cycle back on either immediately or at a later date. Either Nav or guidance will work but Nav along a route only offers reversely for offroad??? Whereas Guidance has a reversely option. So is Nav a route incapable of guiding if I want to go backwards on a route??

What should I use and why?
