[BaseCamp] Adding a waypoint to a route

[Steve Bracken]

There is an "Insert" tool that I use all the time.

I make a route by first creating a route between the end points, then I
insert waypoints along the way until the mileage gets close to what I want.

With the route highlighted, just click the Insert tool on the toolbar and
as you move it over the route it highlights the sections. Click the section
you want to add it to then click the waypoint

It takes longer to describe than it does to do.
