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.

<DocsNote>

Selected items are merged in the order they appear in the files list.
Reorder items by drag-and-drop if needed.
