Current basecamp 4.7.0 will not show an elevation graph on a route prepared on a DEM enhanced map (Talky toaster). If a garmin topo map (much inferior in quality) is used an elevation graph will be displayed even though the TT maps show elevations in the route properties and in the gpx route file. A message always comes up that ' 'this map has no elevation data on it'.
Presumably this is just Garmin trying to keep any competition at a disadvantage.
Also basecamp will not give predicted ascent and descents for a route though you can get the information from the track after you have done the route. - pretty useless.
Memory map using the same route files will give a elevation graph and total ups and downs.
However basecamp is a bit more extensive so I guess one has to put up with these restrictions?
