As a result of forgetting to reset and convert a trail I have ended up with a large combined track that needs separating into two.
Is there any way I can do this using SatSync, Route Converter etc?
Thanks. |

If you can find the .gpx version of the big track you can open it on your computer using a text editor such as NotePad. Find the end and start points using the time stamp and then it is a simple cut and paste job to create two new tracks.
You may need to keep a few of the Header and Footer lines of the BIG track and make them common to both of the smaller, new tracks. _________________ Garmin Nuvi 2599

Thanks for the suggestions.
The method of opening the gpx file with notepad and copying and pasting works very well, and can be done without downloading any new software. I hadn’t realised that gpx files could be opened using notepad.
As you pointed out, it is necessary to copy in the headers and footers from the original big file into each of the small files to enable them to be recognised as gpx files.
Many thanks for the information. |
