We are very pleased to announce two new features that we've just introduced to make it quicker and easier to edit directions and waypoints on your routes: Quick-Edit Directions and Add Waypoint at My Current Location.
Quick-Edit Directions
You can now make quick-edits to the text of your route directions on the desktop version of Plotaroute. Just right-click on the directions to switch to Quick-Edit mode and press ENTER on your keyboard when you've made the changes. A normal left-click will display the full editing options as usual.
This has been one of the most voted-for feature requests, so we're really pleased to be able to now offer this.
Add Waypoint at My Current Location
We've also made it easier to add a waypoint, or any other directions, at your current location on a route using our moble site or web app. This can be useful if you think of new information you'd like to add to a route while out following it. Maybe you've seen a landmark that you'd like to mention or you've noticed something you could add to the directions to make the route easier to follow. Just tap Locate Me icon on the route planner map when adding the new waypoint and it will place it at the nearest point on the route to your current location.
Great additions, Team Plotaroute!
Congratulations for your "never ending" improvements to this already fantastic app!
Thanks for that kind feedback.
I also saw that there is a small change in direction editing on mobile. No quick edit, but nonetheless I though of it as an enhancement. I like it.
It made my go-through of directions for a newly created route a little more effective.
Thanks for that feedback Peter. Yes, we did tweak that a bit!
