Activate Waypoint Deactivates Route

Just started the cruising season and one of updates of CE over the winter resulted in deactivating a route when you activate a waypoint further on in the route. This forces you to reactivate the route when all you wanted to do was cut a corner.

Hi Tom,

That is very odd. I just tested this behavior and it’s working fine for me, here at the office. If you can easily reproduce this, give me a call so we can discuss this in more detail, more easily.

Just add the “next WP” button to your instrument panel. Don’t activate anything new!

Tom_Daly,

It ended up being a problem with which route was activated. I had forked the route previously and saved it as a new route. Somehow when I activated the route, it selected the original route that was forked. Activating the next waypoint deactivated the route but activated the waypoint since it associated the waypoint with a different route.
