Thanks for the quick reply.  

Hi Michael - I'm afraid we don't have an option to download high resolution maps for large prints, as the map images we use are designed for online use, so are much lower resolution than normally used for large format printing.

Admin:  I'm would like to download a very large image of a route to print on a 4'x6' map for an organized ride.   I just read that I can't do a collections, but only one route at a time.  Is there a way to get a very large image so I don't lose detail and sharpness?  I will have to take the longest route of the collection of four and manually add the other three collections.

Thank you! Your help was very clear and could beneficially be copied and pasted into your generic instructions about Collections.

In My Collections, select Edit

Use the arrows to move items in the list.

You can also change the colours here ...

The collections facility is potentially really useful but its automatic colour assignment does not always work well. Your own instructions related to collections states that you can 'reorder' the routes in a collection but they do not explain how to do this. Please advise.

Sorry, we don't have a facility to print multiple routes from a route collection - you would need to print each route individually.   

I'm encountering a problem mentioned in a few posts on route collections. I want to be able to print all the routes in a collection on the same map, but it seems that it will only print a single selected route. Is there a way round this?

Yes, select My Collections from the Routes menu and from there you can edit any route collections to add, remove or reorder routes.

Can you add routes to a collection you have saved?

Hi Guys

This addition just makes Plotaroute so much better!

Hi John

Thanks. It all seem to be working better now. Great addition to Plot a Route.

Keep up the good work

cheers

Hi Murray, yes sorry, I meant change them to public. The collection is probably cached in your browser so I think that's why the changes haven't taken effect yet. Try refreshing the page. Or you could create a new route collection. It should refresh automatically after 24 hours though.

Hi John, 

As before, great feature. 

For horse riders we are going to link Plotaroute rides to the British Horse Society Marie's project, particularly for Scotland. This project groups rides (day) using index maps for Distance Trail Rides. So perfectly parallels what you have done. Will update by email. David. 

Hi John 

I presume you meant to say change them to public rather than private?

I have changed them to public and still screen is still  black! 

This is what happened to the last set i did. 

Hi Murray - the route collection is not showing anything as the routes you've selected are Private rather than Public. You'll need to change them to Private.  You can do this on your My Routes page.

Hi John

Re Routes collections. THe route collection that I first tried now works, but i have made a 2nd one which has done the same as the first... mainly black screen. Does it take a while for it to work?

Dear John,

I've just tried the 'Collections' feature which is excellent.  It has enabled me to join up three routes which together form a circuit.  It will also provided me with a solution to the 'alternative route' issue which I've encountered a couple of times.

When selecting a collection to view it, I think it would be better if all of the routes in the collection appeared on the map by defalut (rather than just the first.)  After all it is 'the collection' that is being viewed and to see just one route gives the imprssion that something has gone wrong.

Hi Murray - it displays OK for me here, are you still having problems with it?  If so, can you let me know what browser you are using please?
