Not being able to honor the avoidance of, say, unpaved roads
Quote from Bixio on 22.06.2022, 11:10Hello Guido and Scenic users,
I have been using the app on a 6-weeks trip towards the Balkans, and I love it. I do have a couple of requests for added features, that would have helped me. Here is one: In a few occasions, after choosing a route of, say, 300Km, Scenic tells me that the avoidance of unpaved roads could not be honored. Unfortunately I have no clue as to which portion of the 300Km I will be on an unpaved road. With this info, I could easily find an alternative. Would be great if the part where Scenic is not sure that the road is paved could be drawn in a different color.
Best wishes
Bixio
PS: It is the first time that I am using the forum. I hope that I am not breaking some rule.

Great question for the forum. Not breaking any rules 🙂.
You can make unpaved roads visible on the map by creating a custom map style (see this thread how: https://scenic.app/forum/topic/custom-map-styles/#postid-3255 )
Unfortunately the route line will cover the colors you set there, so it will still be a bit trial and error , but hopefully this helps?
Cheers,
Guido
