Oregon 450 route order
« on: 09 June, 2011, 06:34:12 am »
Does anybody know how to get Routes to display in alphabetical order in the 'Where To?' menu.  

I number the sections of audaxes as 00_... , 01_... etc but they display in a random order.

Edit:  I found the answer at Garmin Oregon Wiki - home - Discussion - Order of routes in Oregon 450

Quite clever really in that it orders the routes in order of distance of their start point from current location so the next leg should always be top of the list.

I've had a 450 since launch and really love the unit - best GPS I've ever had.

That is useful to know and makes sense, I was always wondering why the routes were in a random (at least to me) order On my Dakota.

Still be nice to know if there is an option to switch to alphabetical ordering.

The Waypoints menu on the Etrex defaults to proximity order, but has an option for alphabetical.
Both are useful.
