Export to *.pln missing waypoints

I’m missing waypoints when exporting to any export format. When inspecting the XML I’m indeed missing the data. The missing waypoints are pretty close to each other but nevertheless I’m expecting WYSIWYG (latest build V8.20.2). Waypoints are omitted when reloading the flight plan in Navigraph. It’s a VFR flight plan navigating the Alps at low level and it’s basically all custom latitude and longitude waypoints no known fixes. On the top in Navigraph where I can copy the route are also missing the waypoints. When I close Navigraph and re-open, the waypoints are gone. What am I doing wrong?

Hi…,

Welcome.

Please post the flight from the top screenshot so we can enter it.

Cheers

Hi Ian,

Thanks for responding. This is the VFR flightplan. Unfortunately, the waypoints in the image are not included in the flightplan. Even if I exported it, re-import it and add the waypoints again, they will not show up in the flightplan. The waypoints only exist in the visual representation. Just add some waypoints in the bend, like in the image, close Navigraph desktop and re-open Navigraph. Waypoints are gone.

I’m curious if there’s already a solution. If I try this again with 8.26.0 build 4957778303 I actually get some feedback “Something went wrong! Could not update the flight, please try again later.” but what went wrong is not clear.

Hi…,

Using the test string entry at top of Charts 8.26.0 Build 4957778303 I just created a LOWS-LOWS flight plan.
I then copied your waypoint text string above over the top of that text string and get the following without error:

Can you please try the same.

Cheers

Hi Ian,

That’s correct. The list of waypoint is not the complete route I created. Some waypoints are omitted because they’re not registered correctly. The show up on the map but are not a part of the flightplan when copying or exporting it.

For instance, load the previous flightplan and drag an extra waypoint from the purple rubber band onto the town of “Imst” like in the screenshot. The waypoint is added but doesn’t show up on the flightplan and the “Something went wrong! Could not update the flight, please try again later.” message appears.
After I copy the flightplan from the top bar and past it into for instance Notepad++ and do a search for the newly added waypoint, it won’t show up.

It looks like there may be a maximum of 99 waypoints at the moment. If you delete one you can add another using the rubber band.

We shall investigate.

Cheers
Ian

Clear! Thanks, I have to admit it is a complex VFR route and I need to be frugal with my waypoints.

Hi…,

We have removed the maximum number of waypoints, so this issue should be resolved.

Please confirm.

Cheers
Ian

Awesome. I can indeed add the missing waypoints, export it and successfully re-import it.

Thanks for the confirmation. Glad it is resolved. :slightly_smiling_face:

Happy flying.

Ian
