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

Good investigation!

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.
