New issue 1539 by charles....@gmail.com: Export multiple tracks to same
Maps Engine map
http://code.google.com/p/mytracks/issues/detail?id=1539

Please describe what your requested feature would do, how it would work,
etc:

Previously, I could export all of my tracks to the same map in classic
maps. Now this is no longer possible. With the recent change over to
exporting to Maps Engine, I would like to request to be able to upload
multiple tracks to the same map in Maps Engine Lite. Right now it is
really difficult to try to compare multiple tracks on the same map. It
would be nice to be able to see them all together.

If you're a developer, are you willing to implement this yourself? (you
probably still want to let us know so we can discuss how it'll work and
whether we believe it's a good feature to be merged into the main mytracks
distribution)

I'm not a developer.

Currently, there is a limit on how many maps Google Maps Engine can display
at once on a web browser. Thus we cannot provide this feature now.

Jshih - would you please remove this limit and allow users to upload
multiple tracks? It's ridiculous to have to even ask - come on Google!

It is a performance limitation on the web browser, not something that can
easily be solved.

I used My Tracks to plot areas of land and used to merge multiple maps so
that I could have 1 full, comprehensive map of the area. With the loss of
this function, I do not believe i will be using My Tracks anymore. It's
way to difficult now to merge the maps. I understand its a browser
limitation, but it worked before, and in my opinion, you should not be
taking away options. You should be ADDING options. Good luck with your
now inferior product.

Same happened to me. It´s ridiculous not to have the possibility to merge
your multiple tracks to your related map. The map that show the tracks of
those zones.

Multiple tracks on 1 google map is would be very, very usefull for many use
cases indeed.

I just ran into this issue and agree with others that Google should be
careful of making changes that take important functionality away. This was
something I used before and planned to use this summer. We know it is
possible. You already had it working!
