Falagar,
Thank you for your continued work to improve Basecamp. I updated to 4.0.1 and am looking forward to trying some of the new features. There is however something that changed how it works in this upgrade that I use a lot, and hope it can be changed back on the next version release. I can use Mapsource until then.

I make a jpg image from the Basecamp screen showing two waypoints, to post on my riding groups website. The two points are the starting point of a ride and the destination. This is to give a quick look for members to see which meeting site we will leave from (we use more than one) and where we are going. No route, just start and finish. I set the waypoint properties to display "symbol & name", I then pick both waypoints (hold down shift or control key and pick both). This shows both waypoints and a description of each making them easy to see. The problem is that the shift or control keys do not work with 4.0.1. I can only pick one waypoint at a time. Was this an intentional change? If so, why. If not, can it be changed back on a future release. it did work on the previous release and works on Mapsource.


I posted the above on the 4.0.1 release thread. It still does not work on 4.0.2. At 5 miles the symbol and name show. At 7 miles the the names goes away. If you select only one of the waypoits the symbol and name show at all zoom levels (at least out to 1500 miles where I stopped zooming out). Will this be addressed on a later update?

    Do you still have trouble selecting more than 1 waypoint? Because that is definitely working in 4.0.2.

    As to the issue of the waypoint name not displaying when selecting more than 1, I am not sure if this is WAI or not. I will create a case and see if it's feasible to re-create the old behavior.

    I can select more than one waypoint and the symbol and name both show up at zoom 5 miles or less. At 7 miles the name doesn't display if more than one waypoint is selected. Thanks for creating a case.
