A simple route I cannot program - help please

[george.s]

Let's say you sit at home and you want to program the coming day's trip, going to three villages in the neighborhood - in your preferred sequence - and return home.
Simple isn't it ? So I go ...
a) "drive to " village A (the first stop), all seems okay
b) next "drive to" village B, when it's found select center, and add to route (not "ride"),

and what does this pricey thing do ? it adds village B as an intermediate stop, not the next stop.
I tried in reverse, program village C first, then B then A. Doesn't work either.

Can anybody tell me how to solve this problem ? On my car's Tomtom it's a piece of cake, you have all the choices in the "tripple dot" menu.
But not in the Rider's Tomtom. I don't get it.

You must start by selecting your starting point and the arrival village.
Once this is done, you will add the intermediate villages to your route.

Hi WIlly,
I understand, but this approach does not work if one tries to go to a number of places in a defined sequence if the total number of places is > or = 4.
You simply cannot control what comes next, the firmware makes it's own choices based on distance (at least that is what it seems to me.)
Thanks for trying anyway.

Hi
I find it strange that this doesn't work for you?

Example, see image. I plan a route with a departure and an arrival.
To this route, I added two waypoints. The GPS will make me pass by these two points before my arrival.

Now I understand, we think we are talking about two different things.
You are planning on your PC, then move the route to your Tomtom.
The problem I describe comes about when I try to do all this (on the way) on the Tomtom Rider satnav.

You should be able to do the same thing directly on the GPS.

The starting point will always be your current position.

You select an arrival point, then go.

Press the 3 dots, then search for an intermediate point.

A new window opens on your GPS, click add
Do the same for the other intermediate points.
