Climb guidance 2.0 issue - not all zoom levels are available at the end of the route (see picture)

[sky-runner]

Normally, when there are waypoints are on the route, the new climb guidance 2.0 allows 4 zoom levels:
#1: One “segment” of the elevation profile with the next waypoint at the end of the zoomed in profile
#2: Two “segments” of the elevation profile with the second next waypoint waypoint at the end of the zoomed in profile
#3: Three “segments” - with the third next waypoint at the end
#4: The entire elevation profile with all waypoints.

The example of the zoom level #4 (the full profile) is shown in the photo below:

At this point, you’d think it should be possible to zoom in twice - to zoom levels #2 and #1. Obviously, we cannot see three segments because there are only two remaining.

However in reality, the watch allows me to zoom in only once to zoom level #1 - to see the part of the profile from the current point to the last waypoint and where the second from the end climb ends. But there is no way to see the profile from the current point to the end at a zoomed in fashion. Arguably, the entire remaining profile is already shown in the above view, which is zoom level #4. However, as you can see, the profile is really compressed and it is difficult to see any details. It seems the zooming logic is based on the number of remaining waypoints rather than profile “segments”, which I think is flawed because nobody is going to have a waypoint at the very end. Should we?

Can this please be fixed? The zooming logic should work as if there was an additional waypoint at the very end of the route.

@sky-runner I’ll report this for you, with a link to this post

Thank you, @isazi!

@isazi I wanted to add two things that are related:

1. Something is definitely off with the zooming in/out logic. What I’ve observed several times is that when I scroll the crown the elevation graph doesn’t change but asent and descent numbers change slightly. It behaves is if there were two waypoints very close to each other, but that isn’t the case.

2. Climb guidance 2.0 becomes super confusing when the route is reversed. For example in the photo below I am actually climbing and the graph moves right to left. This isn’t an acceptable user experience by any means:

I really like v2. Well done Suunto team.
It works very well when used properly with Waypoints.

There’s only one thing missing (mentioned earlier on the forum) – when using Waypoints, there’s still a one zoom level missing that would show the current ascent regardless of the next Waypoint.

exactly, the graph should be flipped horizontally when the route is reversed, the current implementation is a bit raw

@Stefano-M64 @sky-runner :

yes, this is under construction and will very likely be changed with the next Firmware
