Edit waypoints

From the edit menu you can change the order of waypoints (move up/down) or delete a single waypoint.

You can also reverse the order of waypoints.

Every edit will immediately be drawn on the map.

Data transfer options

There are several transfer options from the plugin transfer menu:








Google API info

With Google Maps you can create a route with a maximum of 9 waypoints.

Start with this url, containing api=1: https://www.google.com/maps/dir/?api=1

The route always starts with 1 destination: https://www.google.com/maps/dir/?api=1&destination=lat,lng (replace lat,lng with 2 floating point values, latitude,longitude)

Every next waypoint (lat,lng) can be added as a range of waypoints, joined by pipe (|)
waypoints=lat,lng|lat,lng|lat,lng
where every comma (,) is replace by %2C and every pipe (|) is replace by %7C:
https://www.google.com/maps/dir/?api=1&destination=lat,lng&waypoints=lat%2Clng%7Clat%2Clng%7Clat%2Clng

By default a route starts from your location.
As an option you can also show a preview route by adding an origin which will be used as the starting location:
https://www.google.com/maps/dir/?api=1&destination=lat,lng&origin=lat,lng&waypoints=lat%2Clng%7Clat%2Clng%7Clat%2Clng

You can also choose a travelmode:
https://www.google.com/maps/dir/?api=1&destination=lat,lng&origin=lat,lng&travelmode=driving&waypoints=lat%2Clng%7Clat%2Clng%7Clat%2Clng
