opencpn track merge

[gypsie]

I have recently merged 2 tracks by error. Is there any way of reversing it as I now have 2 tracks several hundred miles apart merged together?

Not from the GUI, but it is
- Trivial to replace the current version of the navobj.xml file with an older automatically created backup in case you have not done/recorded changes you want/need to preserve since the accidental modification and the backup still exists (By default OpenCPN keeps the last 5 of them). Or
- Simple to edit the navobj.xml file where the tracks are stored if you did change something you don't want to throw away or don't have an usable backup version available anymore (It is a normal GPX file, which is a XML format editable with any decent text editor).

Thank you for that. I'll give it a try
