Measure distance widget

[Gavinx]

I can no longer find the Measure Distance widget.

Is it buried somewhere?

thanks

No Gavin, it's still there!

It has been just renamed.

Try looking for 'Plan a route' in the main menu ;)

Best things,

Max

Thanks Max. They sure have made a simple thing into a complicated one.

Measuring beeline distances hasn't got more complicated. But it has very useful new features. You can measure distances along a route passing through given points - and that for different profiles. Furthermore it has grown into a track editor.

IMHO it has got much more useful. 

Thanks to the developers, 

Helmut

I think they have decided to rename it since it now has improved features.

Now you can still measure the distance between points, but now you have also the option to calculate it along a way, by "sticking" to roads and tracks.

If you want to know what's the distance you will travel, you don't need to point multiple times to follow every single bend, just click the start and finish points, and the line will be drawn along a calculated route between 

Hence the name "Plan a route". 

Personally, I find that very comfortable (and of course the old option to measure point-by-point is still available)
