Problem with Saved Routes

$

I have be trying to use saved routes.

It appears that the route that gets retrieved depends on the routing mode setting, shortest, fastest, cheapest,  in the route setup tab of the route info screen.  I discovered this  when I loaded, from saved routes, a route that was not the one I saved.  I had saved this with shortest setting and had changed the setting to fastest when I retrieved it.

It seems to me that if you save a route you should get back what you saved.  I saved a route because the program algorithms generated bad to ridiculous routes that I did not want.  I wanted the route that I wanted.  I don't need the program algorithmns screwing up the route that I spent over an hour on getting way points to force the route.

When I don't have an established route, I usually want fastest, and I leave that setting on.  I have learned that with fastest, forcing a route with way points, in one case, required a waypoint on almost every block because the program wanted to get off the street that I wanted in my route.  I saw another forced route that was hard to do in shortest.  Leaving the phone always on fastest doesn't solve the problem.

Is there any way to avoid, when you are retrieving a saved route, having to figure out which routing mode setting I saved my route with?
