The '''[[File:Options''' button on the top right opens the options dialog with several settings.jpg]]
== Routing ==
'''Optimize routes''' - if disabled, your destinations will not be re-orderedThese options impact the route finding:
'''Home address''' * Optimize routes - the default departure address that If disabled, your destinations will not be added to the map each timere-ordered.
'''Default departure time''' * Type of vehicle - departure time from which arrival times are calculatedThe mode of transport used for routing.
'''Default service time''' * Number of rounds - default service timeDivide stops over [[multiple rounds]], used for arrival times and time windowse.g. drivers, vehicles or days.
'''Geocoding preference''' * Balance - the geocoder service used for finding addresses on the mapOptimize total travel time vs clock time needed to finish all rounds (makespan).
'''Suffix address''' * Max roundtime - text to be added to addresses Maximum duration of a round when sent to the geocoding service. May be used to add a city, state or countrydividing stops.
'''* Home address - The default departure address that will automagically be added to the map each time. * Default departure time - Your departure time from which arrival times are calculated. * Default service time - The default service time, used for arrival times and time windows. Changes will only apply to newly added addresses. * Navigate with - The service used for turn-by-turn gps navigation, started by the [[Navigate]] button or [[Fulfillment]] dialog. == Advanced == These settings are advanced feature to impact the route planning [[Algorithm]]. They may be experimental or may give unexpected results. Use with care. * Turn penalty - adds turn costs to the algorithm, e.g. add 10 seconds to each left turn. * Stop penalty - adds roadside costs to the algorithm, e.g. add 120 seconds to each stop on the left side. == Geocoding == These settings impact [[Geocoding]], which is the process of finding addresses on the map. * Geocoding preference - The geocoder service that is used for your addresses. * API key - Your optional API key for geocoding services, for high volume users only. Keep empty for normal usage. * Suffix address - Text to be added to addresses when sent to the [[geocoding]] service. May be used to add a city, state and/or country. * Replace tabs - If enabled, any tab in your addresses will be replaced with a comma. This may improve geocoding when copying addresses from spreadsheet. * Search area - Sets the area to look for addresses on the map. Select XS for small (e.g. village) and XL for large area (e.g. world). * Check address precise''' - If enabled, a warning if is given when a [[geocoding ]] service does not return a precise result, e.g. no street or house number. * Add what3words: Enable to add the unique 3 words address from the [https://what3words.com/ What3words] system to each location you enter.
== Styling ==
'''These options impact the appearance of the [[user interface]]: * [[Map style''' ]] - select Select another theme for the map. Note that the [[algorithm]] will always use OpenStreetMap for your routes, no matter what map style the user interface has. * Retina maps - Use high resolution maps on retina screens. Some map styles may show very small characters. * Show labels - Add text labels for each location to the map next to the marker. * Buttons with text - If disabled, the buttons on the website do not show text. * Desktop notifications - Display a notification when a route has been found. * Time format - Select 12h or 24h clock, e.g. for displaying arrival times.
'''Retina maps''' * CSV seperator - allow Character to be used to split fields in the use of high resolution maps (only on retina screens and when available)CSV [[download]].
* CSV fields - Select the columns to be included in the CSV file. Keep empty for the default, or use: '''Maps in driving directions'stop, address, name, distance, duration, comment, servicetime, demand, heading, arrival, ready, due'' (case- add detailed maps for destinations in the driving directionssensitive, use only lowercase)
'''Show labels''' - add text labels for each location to the map next to the marker== Print ==
'''Buttons with text''' * Maps in driving directions - if disabledAdd detailed maps for destinations in the [[driving directions]]. * Print all details - Add [[driving directions]] and travel distance and duration between stops. * Print width - The page width when printing (default: 800px). * Map height - The map height when printing (default: 400px). When set to 0, the buttons on the website do map will not show textbe printed.
== Parameters ==
'''These parameters are used for [[Find route|route finding]] and [[savings]]: * Unit of distance/volume/weight, currency''' - whatever Whatever you like, need or know. Note that you'll need to save the options to have the new units displayed in the next three settings:parameters.
'''* Avg fuel economy, fuel costs and avg carbon emission''' - only Only used for savings calculation, has no impact on optimization.
'''* Speed''' - the The percentage of the normal speed to use in planning. Use 100% for normal speed. If our routes are too fast, e.g. total travel time is too small, use a value below 100%. If our routes are too slow, use a value above 100%. * Unit of capacity: Select the unit to be used for capacity restrictions in [[multiple rounds]]. E.g. use "m3" if your vehicles have a maximum volume they can load. * Capacities: Sets the capacity for each round, such as vehicles. One number for each round, seperated by spaces. E.g. set to "6 6 6 6" if four vehicles have maximum 6 m3 capacity.
