Colour of Altitude Graph chosen by Customised Sports Mode
-
Okay, this one just seems a weird UI choice to me.
Normally Altitude when following a route is shown in blue. When you customise a sports mode to show altitude over time, the only option is red. Is it not possible to show it as blue as when navigating a route instead, even if you’re not navigating a route?
I imagine it’s a deliberate choice & is a firmware limitation but the first time I used it I was really confused why my HR (as I’d generally associate red with HR) was in the 60s till I remembered it was an Alti-screen. I’m also curious if this is just restricted to non-Baro watches (S5/S9/Non-Baro Spartans).
I’d call it a feature request but it’s partly idle curiosity, and obviously you can have other graphs showing (EPOC, Power, Speed, Cadence), but I guess all in red too.

@the_77 yes I’ve noticed it early-on too.
Since there can be only one custom chart during the workout it should be possible to customize its color. Being always red isn’t the best idea as users can have multiple sports modes and color-coding is helpful to quickly get reminded what the graph is showing. For example, I can have a sports mode where I’m using chart for cadence so I don’t mind the color, but then I’ll be using elevation or tempo, so a different color than red would be welcome.
Of course it doesn’t have to be full RGB spectrum
But having few basic colors to choose from would be fantastic.
