Route Data Box Not Populating
It was fine yesterday. But now when I run optimizations, the route data box shows P or S as well as distance... and that's it. When I look at optimization results, there is data to be exported. For whatever reason Exp decided to stop filling in the Route data box.
Has anyone else solved this one? I've tried rrebooting - nada.

Re: Route Data Box Not Populating
I don't understand the question.
The route data box?

Re: Route Data Box Not Populating
Aftercompleting an optim8xed route, there is a data box that can be opened to show the legs of the optimized route. It has leg distance, duration of the leg, port/starboard and then it shows TWS TWA and the recommended sail. That box is not populating.
I can get Results from optimal routes and they are Sean on the chat. I can even do the analysis that shows the table of TWS/TWa and the estimate of hours at each combo. Then at the bottom, it shows me how many hours I use each sail. So I'm pretty sure all of the math is being completed. But that one data box does not populate. It's found in a drop down menu at the upper right of the screen. It's just called Route.

Re: Route Data Box Not Populating
Is this the window that is displayed when you select the Results button?

Re: Route Data Box Not Populating
I see now.
The route window has absolutely nothing to do with optimal routing results. It contains data related to your active course/route.

Re: Route Data Box Not Populating
Ahhh. So I simply need to export the optimized route to Mark's and set it as Active. Right?
Many thanks!

Re: Route Data Box Not Populating
One last question on this topic. When I look at the results from an optimization, some of the TWA values are in parenthesis. I think they are all negative (port) angles. But, not all of the port tack angles are in parenthesis. What does this mean.?

Re: Route Data Box Not Populating
The parenthetical values indicate they are the mean value and to accomplish them you will either need to tack or gybe but keep that your average TWA.
