Hello,
Is there any way to disable these red points, waypoints below on an imported route or change their style?

red points on track are special points that are in GPX file market as waypoints. Currently there is no way to disable these points.

What information contain these points? Or is whole track connected from these red dots? If so and points do not contain any additional information, then I should expect that your source file is not perfectly created. If you share you file here, I may look on it

attached is the file.

It's an export of a route I drew using the Map Calibrator software:

I'm not sure if this is the best practice but I basically drew over some skiing routes so that I can follow my path easier.

fine, it's how I told you before ...

check this page, there is quite clear description http://cycleseven.org/gps-waypoints-rou ... difference

In GPX file from you, track is created from <rtept> tags. This is in link about image called "GPS Route". And instead of small flags, Locus just show red points. If you do not want to have these points, you need to create track from <trkpt> tags. Then result will looks like image "GPS Track".

So there
1. should be possibility to export as trk and not rte
2. or you'll have to manually change it in any text editor. All you need to do is switch all rte for trk and all rtept to trkpt and also cover all points with one <trkseg> ... </trkseg> tag ...

when I'll take part of you file, you need this
