Hi All, 

I have found that in Virtual Mode, when I try to find the total route
distance of a created pedestrian or vehicle route by executing r+d+a
command, I get senseless reading. It may say "0m total route distance or
sometimes 130 metre total route distance. The distance it gives is always
the same despite different routes between different starting and destination
points. The problem gets resolved when I reset the software to factory
default using one of the commands in the option menu. But it comes back
again after a couple of route creations in virtual mode. There is no issue
when the route is created in GPS mode. There is also no issue when executing
other distance commands such as r+a+e to get estimated arrival distance. 

 

The other problem I have noticed not just in this version but in previous
versions is that it is sometimes impossible to explore straight over a road
in virtual mode using CTRL+up arrow when the road has a tunnel or rail track
going over or under crossing it even though in real drive or walk, one can
go straight forward over the road. I do not know if this particular issue is
limited to Australian map. I appreciate comments from someone at Sendero.
