Animations of routes

[Wapping]

This is something I haven’t played around with yet. For example, I didn’t put proper ‘pauses’ into the waypoints (hands) which I think should pause the animation and produce a pop-up. I’ll play around, not least as (working from a copy) you can’t break it.

That aside, it does make routes more interesting if you share them.

Nicer perhaps with the popular Michelin map overlay? Especially if you zoom in with it paused, to get a better overall impression of the roads.

Not sure about the music choice.

That’s better.

Michelin overlay.

No music.

Pauses created, which brings in the pop-ups of pictures and notes.

I don’t think you have to actually insert a physical pause into the point. Just inserting a picture or note seems to work, as I inserted pictures and notes at the start and end. Pauses though are useful for other things.

That looks neat. .

I need to spend more time working with myrouteapp and get to grips with it. Before I find myself abroad and needing to use it in anger most likely in pishing rain.

It’s best to get it working before departure. Though that can ruin the bikermates’ preference of swearing at their dumb device, for it doing no more than they have told it to do. That the dumb device cannot actually hear their rantings, is irrelevant.

PS Aberdeen is probably not the driest place on earth. Get out and get at least a part of the experience under your belt

Looks good must have a play with that. Easier to share than animating the route in Google Earth

 

[Wapping]

It’s a shame that Google doesn’t offer a ‘Fly the route at ground level’ option, in a sort of speeded up version of StreetView. I guess it’s possible?

I have an MRA account Richard and tapping the link works for me and starts the animation, on both the PC and iOS

 

[Wapping]

Thank you.

If I wait a few more days I can give it a try in the snow too.

Interestingly i was watching the route fly by then realised i wasnt actually logged in to my MRA account.

So you can obviously share these routes with non-subscribers which is nice.
if will make them go "wow that's amazing! i need to sign up"

Bloody hell Wapping....only just popped into this thread....that animation is pretty damn clever.

Worked for me on home computer.

Thank you everyone for trying it out.

Great to know that the animations work, whether one has a MyRoute account or not.

No more testing required.
