Road Trip planner

 

After the routes have been updated, you can better adjust your arrival and departure time and dates for each route pin location.  Click on the calendar icon, or click on a date or time value to edit the value.


Auto-update route pin time and date values

If this option is enabled on the Dates pane window or in the preferences, and you adjust the time & date values for a route pin, click on each succeeding route pin to update its arrival and departure time & date values.  To adjust all route pin arrival and departure date & time values at once, either click on Update Routes or select Update Route Pin Date & Time Values from the Pin menu.  Each route pin’s expected arrival date & time is calculated from the previous pin’s departure date & time plus time at the location plus the travel time to the current pin location.
