Is it possible to automatically start navigation after remotely sending waypoints?
-
I have managed to send way points through an IP-connection to PC Navigator like this:$destination=51.48xxx,6.9xxxxx;51.47xxxx,6.94xxxx;51.46xxxx,6.95xxxx;50.36xxxx,7.5xxxx;"from bla via blub and blub to somewher";navigate;departureThis results in the user getting the message icon. He has to click on the icon and start the navigation manually. That's a bit inconvenient. I would like to automatically generate a route and start the navigation for it without the user having to do anything interactively.Is that possible?

Thanks, this got me one step further: I can now remotely display the dialog where the user can select "Navigate" by adding the "instant" parameter:$destination=51.48xxx,6.9xxxxx;51.47xxxx,6.94xxxx;51.46xxxx,6.95xxxx;50.36xxxx,7.5xxxx;"from bla via blub and blub to somewher";navigate;departure;instantBut that's still one manual step.There is no $start_navigation command, only a $stop_navigation.My users can probably live with that.

I just found, that passing 'instant' now instantly starts the routing. This is odd, because the first time I tried it, it required the user to press a button.Thinking about it: The current route does not have a description, so maybe that's it.Regarding 'departure': Yes, you might be right. For real world situations my users won't need the 'departure' parameter. I'm currently simulating the routing, so for that I need it.
Howdy, Stranger!
