Misc questions

OK, understood.

I created a *.gpx file containing six position lists:
   
Before saving: Two waypoint lists, two routes, two tracks

Then I stored everything as *.gpx file and re-loaded it again:
   
After re-loading: One waypoint list (that contains all waypoints of 1+2), two routes, two tracks

As per Wikipedia *.gpx files can contain all three types <wpt> and <rte> and <trk> several times.

BUT from the examples in Wikipedia I see that

Code:

    <metadata>
        <name>name of the waypoint list</name>
    </metadata>

can only applied once per *.gpx file.

It appears to me that all position lists of type 'Wapoint list' in a *.gpx file are handled together.

So (Christian may correct me) here we seem to face a limitation in the *.gpx file format.
