Can Bobcat edit individual tracks?

[gallet]

Garmin says in their 2.0.0.4 beta release that you can now edit individual points in tracks, but I am unable to work out how to do this I've tried various key combo. Any clues?

Well, what I found was that if you zoom into a track and use the arrow tool to select one of the points in the track, you can drag that point to a new location.

That's strange because I can't select points, only the track. And I am using 2.0.04 http://screencast.com/t/SReTzECZ

I'm not reading the same thing your are. Bobcat.

It says Bobcat allows one to, "transfer waypoints, tracks, and routes between your Mac and Garmin device and manage your data using your Garmin maps."

 

Is there another link I'm missing?

No, it's not working as I described above. It turns out that I had two white tracks on a white background and the "drag" switched tracks that were overlapped.

Just heard back from Garmin.

 

Double click the track which will highlight the point in the info editor and it can be deleted. Cmd + i brings up the info palette.

 

I'm still waiting to find out how to join tracks

Saw that.

 

When you said "...you can now edit individual points in tracks..." I was thinking you meant you could edit individual points, as in changing the coordinates of the point. I know don't think that's what you meant. You seem to be referring to the general editing of tracks. MapSource added this feature a few upgrades ago. Sounds like Bobcat is just now adding this feature for Mac users.

 

Editing the coordinates on a track point would be neat; you can do it in Google Earth; maybe some day the feature will be added into MapSource.

Well it says it's there in the update notes, but it's not implemented yet.
