Terrible google URL import issues

I have made some changes recently that should improve the import. Are you still having problems now? If so, could you paste an URL here and a screenshot of how the route imports into Scenic?

Thank you Guido.

Yep, still having problems. I was just getting started again to test so I haven't even done much. It's just a route between two points that does not import as expected.

Google URL: https://www.google.com/maps/dir/EagleRider+Motorcycle+Rentals+and+Tours+Denver,+4710+Lipan+St,+Denver,+CO+80211/Nederland,+CO/@39.8701466,-105.4145713,11z/data=!4m15!4m14!1m5!1m1!1s0x876c78df0ad75ee3:0x96b9be50064f953c!2m2!1d-105.0014129!2d39.7826862!1m5!1m1!1s0x876bc6c44e45525b:0x8d645c98aaec4cb2!2m2!1d-105.5108312!2d39.9613759!3e0!5i1?entry=ttu

FYI after I create the route, I'm picking the one on Google Map, I'd like to use.

Ok. Scenic is picking the first route option that Google suggests. And not the alternative route Google Maps  suggested and you picked. Let me see if I can also get that scenario in the import.

Apart from that, I see the Scenic route is exactly the same as the primary route that Google suggests between those locations.

For now, as a workaround, don’t select the alternative route, but in stead, in Google Maps, drag the original route so that it becomes the alternative route you want. That will add a coordinate to the Google Maps URL and Scenic will use that as well.

Got it, let me try that, thank you!
