Progress, and a few snags:- Previous problems were caused by having not properly changed the filename. The amended "routing" looked like "routing.xml" but more thorough investigation showed it was "routing.xml.txt". That is now resolved, placed in the correct location, and after re-booting is adopted by Osmand as the new "routing". The options for the range of speeds are visible and they operate (presumably accurately). - (I'll check this later).
ALL HELPERS (Harry, Max, Poutnik) - THANK YOU VERY MUCH. However:- 1. On the TABLET (running OsmAnd+ 2.9.3 from SD card on Android 4.4.4) one has to go into "Routing settings", "Navigation settings", [boat], to find the speed options under "Routing Preferences. There, the range of speeds offers TICK BOXES and allows ticking of more than one at a time. Whereas, on the PHONE (running OsmAnd+ 2.9.3 from "Internal shared storage" on Android 7.0), to find the range of speeds, one only has to go to "Routing settings", and there one immediately sees "Boat Speed" [whatever was selected]. Tapping that reveals the range of speeds offered as BUTTONS for the speed, and only one at a time is selectable. 2. Using the NAUTICAL MAPS mode, the route line shows as a thick purple line. This obscures important details, eg weirs, locks, sluices, etc. Whereas in any other MAP mode, ie Walk, Bike, Car, World, the route line shows on my devices as a thin dotted red line (generated, I think, by GPXR08.render.xml - Kindly provided by another OsmAnd contributor a year or two ago). Re (1) It would be preferable if the access to the range of speeds on the TABLET was "nearer the surface" It would be preferable if the tick boxes did not allow ticking of more than one at a time. Re (2) It would be infinitely desirable for the routing line to show as a thin red dotted line (as it does in my other map modes) because of the significant disadvantage of not being able to see critical hazards through the thick purple line. A solution to this would be a major advantage - ANY SUGGESTIONS? FWIW, I had adjusted Max's "Boat Routing" code to show " <parameter id="boat_speed_3" group="boat_speed" name="Speed 3" " instead of "<parameter id="boat_speed_1" group="boat_speed" name="3 km/h" ", and similarly for the other values, and changed the values to 3,4,5 &6 instead of 1,5,8,15. And under "<way attribute="speed" type="speed">" I substituted values 3,,4,5,6 in lies of each respective value 1,5,8,15. Reasons; I want to be able to work in Knots (not km/h) and prefer the new speed values. I (coding novice) presume that the above will have no detrimental effect. I don't understand why the following three lines exist, but I left them alone " </if> <select value="10" t="waterway" v="river"/> <select value="10" t="waterway" v="canal"/>" If particularly (2) above can be resolved, and ideally also (1), I'll summarise the method for future users.
