Change the color of the routeFORUMS HOME SEARCH FORUMS

Is there a way to change the color of the route?

Hi Jennifer - yes, you can change this on your My Settings page.

When you combine multiple routes on one map how can you change the color of each route so each route has a different color?

On Route Collections each route is automatically shown in a different color.

Re:  Changing colors of four routes in a collection.

The app automatically showns a different color, but I'm finding they colors are too close together.  I would like to use some drastically different colors and then would like them to show up different when all four of my routes come together.  Can that be done and if so, how do I go about it?  I could not figure it out in settings.

Thanks,

Mike

Admin:  Any progress on being able to change and save default colors in collections?

In hand Mike - look out for an announcement in the coming weeks.

Admin:  Thank you for making this change soon.  That will help a great deal when reading the cue sheets.  By the way, I Love your software.  I'm learning new features every day. 

Can you add one more thing to your list of "to dos".  Once I drop mile markers in "Display" how do I save that new setting?  If I put four routes into one collection, I get four layers of mile markers, which obviously I don't want.  It is a mess.

I'm glad you're enjoying using the site Mike. We'll look into the issue of rememebering the Display switch settings when viewing a route collection. We may be able to add something in with the current work we're doing on collections, but if that is possible, it would only remember the setting on the device you're using. For anything more complicated, like overriding the default setting when sharing a collection with other poeple, it would need to be added to the back of a very long queue of feature requests I'm afraid.  

As long as I could save the new display and then print to pdf, that would work as I could then share that document, or as least I think that would work. 

.... it would only remember the setting on the device you're using. 

That would work for me!

I have four routes and I want each to have a different color, but when I change one, all my routes end up with that same color.  Is this correct or am I doing something wrong?

Sorry Mike, it's not possible to assign different colours to different routes, except as part of a collection.

Thanks, so to make sure I understand this correctly, the only place where colors are different is in collections.  I can change them on my computer, but can't save them.   But.... this might be in the works to update?
