Hi,

I understand the purpose of the "Update Last Routes" under the Edit Menu.

I have found that selecting "Update Last Routes" has the same effect as "Update Routes" button when starting from the first Pin.

Why not just make the "Update Routes" button have the same functionality as the "Update Last Routes" selection and be done with it.

I understand that I may need to press the same button multiple times to complete the routing however I don't need to navigate under the Edit menu to find it OR remember the hotkey sequence.

Thoughts?

I meant **View Menu** instead of **Edit menu** sorry.

The difference between the two is subtle, and best explained here:

Hi Bill,

Ok I see my suggested technique only works once and then I need to use the visible "Update Routes"  button to reinitiate an update to an already completed route.

An alternate suggestion then is to allow the user to customize the toolbar to add the "Update Last Routes" button.

BTW, thanks for your longterm support of this great application.

Regards,
Dave
