Set the exact start time?FORUMS HOME SEARCH FORUMS

Often the - and + buttons do not give a chance to set an exact start time.

E.g., if I wish to set 8:40 and the timer is currently at 8:50 a click on the minus button will change it to 8:44 and a second click to 8:39. The slider does not help with better results. Why is that? Wouldn't it be great, if one could simply enter the exact time of start?

Thanks for that feedback Pascal. That may be a bug as it should chnage at 5 minute intervals.

I believe the timer controls should be revisited. Especially the advanced settings. I'd appreciate if I could directly enter the parameters. It's very frustrating to try to set the parameters with the slider. Furtherrmore, the +/- buttons don't "take". e.g. if I set an advanced parameter using the +/- buttons, click on the Directions control and return to the Timer control, the changes I specified to the advanced parameters are lost.

Thanks Paul. It looks like that might be a bug. We'll look into it and get it fixed.

The +/- buttons on the Advanced Settings panel now "take". tyvm

For the first time, I've investigated the "Stop here for" feature. It seems to me these stops aren't built into the timer model. See this screen shot. The ride time should be about an hour and I've built in 1.5 hours of stop time along the route. However, the ETA for the course is only about an hour. I also don't detect these stops in the TCX export.

Did you set "Include Stops" to "Yes" in the Timer panel?

That was a little embarassing. I had not made that setting. Thanks.

I am plotting routes for a motorbike. It seems the max speed I can put in is 50k/hr? It would be handy to have higher speeds.

Im a motorcycle rider, and the app accept the motorbike option, however the timer do not allow to set speeds for my vehicle, non sense!

Hi Jeremy and Ariel,
Thanks for raising this issue. I had bookmarked this topic, but I still need to bring this up with the team.
However, please keep in mind what I wrote in my "News for 2025" post regarding future developments on Plotaroute.
The TLDR is: Visorando does work on getting several Plotaroute features to Visorando. Therefore, the devs are working on the Visorando website and app right now, not on Plotaroute itself.
Maybe a development for motorcycles will occur once this is done.
Best regards,
Julien
