Include altitude (elevation) in GPX exports
Quote from AstridM on 01.02.2024, 09:31Since Scenic offers such nice elevation graphs, I wonder why the elevation data is not included in the GPX exports. Is this something which could be added in the future? Once this is included, Scenic could become not only my preferred motorcycle navigation tool, but would also be ideal for recording my mountain bike trips.

Scenic will include elevation data. But, you need to see the chart with elevation first, because that's the time the elevations are generated.
I know this is pretty clumsy... it's not recording the elevation while you are riding, even though it knows. In stead, the elevation is determined based on coordinate when you open the chart view. Once you've done that, and then export the GPX, eleveation is in there.Cheers,

Have a good day
