[Feature] Loop GPX Route from Beginning (without Reversing)

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
It would be awesome to keep a loaded GPX File looped. So when the route extracted from the GPX is finished it just goes to the beginning and starts over again.

Describe the solution you'd like
Have a menu toggle to enable looping of a GPX route.

Additional context
Thanks for this awesome tool! We are using it to test a bike routing app for the state of Hessen.

This should be possible. If you customize the toolbar there is a autoreverse button you can add to it. Load the Gpx file and toggle the button. You should now walk back to the beginning after you reached the end of the route.

Edit: I just saw that you wanted to start at the beginning again. This is currently not possible, but it shouldn't be to hard to implement. I'll have to see when I find the time to work on the project again.

To be honest, I didn't occur to me to check on customizing the toolbar which hides a few more gems of features, awesome! 🚀

Right, the current repeat feature does not fit our use case, thanks anyways and maybe it makes an enhancement someday.

Yeah I should really highlight these features somehow. They are really hidden inside the toolbar customization. Maybe additional menubar items would be beneficial.
