--- title: Merge --- # { title } To use this tool, you need to [select](../files-and-stats) multiple files, [tracks, segments or routes](../gpx). - If your goal is to create a single continuous trace from your selection, use the **Connect the traces** option and validate. - The second option can be used to create or manage files with multiple [tracks, segments or routes](../gpx). Merging files (or tracks) will result in a single file (or track) containing all tracks and routes (or segments) from the selection. Selected items are merged in the order they appear in the files list. Reorder items by drag-and-drop if needed.
