Merging tracks <trk> together
Submitted by NavCademy • #118 • Jun 23, 2026 • updated Jun 24, 2026
Hello,
Together with the ACT founders I'm currently in the process of evaluating your DMD HUB and the PLANNER. Main focus is on managing and organizing all the ACT tracks and the POI. Beside of that I took a closer look at functionalities for creating an editing a track <trk>.
Using the HUB PLANNER for editing a track - moving exiting trackpoints <trkpt>, create new ones and deleting them - works as aspect. The handling is to me straight forward.
Unfortunately I couldn't find a functionality to merge two or even more tracks <trk>. For an example using the good old GARMIN BaseCamp you can select two or even more tracks, choose the functionality to merge them together. Within a popup dialog the selected tracks are listet, just in case you want to out them in a different order. After you hit the button 'merge' the selected tracks will be merged together. Finally you can choose to keep the original tracks or to delete them.
To give you a better understanding of what the functionality looks like I've recorded a screencast. Due to the file (35 MB) size I've uploaded the file to my Google Drive- https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1rf5zXE2UK-I1IjjzVRF7X9du4nVF_YoD?usp=sharing
If you've any further question or you need some more information on this, please feel free to contact me.
Best regards
Jan

You can do it already.
In the left side tap on "GPX Structure" then in the top of the list tap the top buttons to either multiple select or draw selection on the map.
Or just use your keyboard shift + click to select multiple.
Once more than one track or route is selected you can use the "Merge Selection Sectiona" button.

Hi Johny,
thx a lot for your quick reply to my question. I just tested it and what can I say - it works. Great!
By testing I also find out how to split an exiting track.
I was wondering if have already a kind of user manuel . If not it would be my pleasure to setup a first draft of "How to create and edit tracks within the DMD HUB PLANNER".
Regards Jan
