If a Route is being converted on Montana directly to a Course, all names of waypoints, which are longer than 15 chars, are just being cuted. I am not sure, why such limitation exist, as the same waypoints in Routes are being shown with much more characters. And there is plenty of space, to show the full name. Firmware 10.80.

Have mentioned this to Garmin in the past, have now sent another reminder and asked for clarification.
