Sync with Garmin preserves track/route status of original uploadFORUMS HOME SEARCH FORUMS

This is what I think is happening:

 - If I manually create a route on plotaroute and then auto-sync with garmin, the TRACK is synced

 - If I import a gpx which is a TRACK to plotaroute and save it, and auto-sync with garmin, then the TRACK is synced

However,

 - If I import a gpx which is a ROUTE to plotaround and save it, and auto-sync with garmin, then the ROUTE is synced.

In the last one of these cases, my Garmin invariably crashes since it can't handle a ROUTE with loads and loads of checkpoints. Clearly the file shouldn't have been saved this way in the first place, but often not a lot can be done about that since it may be provided on a website or by a race organiser for example. 

Now I know this is happening, there is a simple workaround to import the ROUTE, export the TRACK, reimport the TRACK, re-save and then sync with Garmin. 

But it would be great to have this as an option somewhere within plotaround such that synced files are always TRACKs, for example. 

Good investigation!
