Global Mapper v25.0

Why some lines can not be splitted well?

Dear all,

I am trying to make a map for GPS routing, and I use the option "Only Split Lines at Existing Intersections", no need to add points, and it works almost in every intersection. But in some cases like I am talking about is not possible and I assume it may be a bug.

Maybe is a mixture of inclinations of lines, who knows...

I send you attached a osm file with 2 flat polylines (with no height) that I can not intersect.

Regards,

Carlos.

    Hello,

    When you choose "Only Split Lines at Existing Intersections" to split two lines, the lines must have a common vertex.  If you want to split two lines regardless of whether or not they have a common vertex, i.e., split the lines wherever they cross each other, you should choose the option to "Insert Vertices and Split at Intersections".

    Cheers,

    Bob
