Column order / section rounds

theothertom
over 5 years ago

It seems as if column order in the "Rounds"-section has changed.

Up to now I had: # of rounds / Total time / Time (of the round)

Now I see: # of rounds / Time (of the round) / Total time

I do like the old order better as other paramaters are linked to the "Time" as well. 

a) Why has that been changed by Garmin? And will you reverse it again?

b) If not, is there a possibility to customize the order of those columns?

    It would help if you wrote what page or screen you refer to, and what type of activity or workout is involved. Posting a screenshot would help even better.

    good point. Screenshot is in German, Workout is a run.

    Does this answer your question?

    Up to now "Gesamtzeit" (Total Time) was the 2nd col, "Zeit" (Time) was the 3rd.

    OK, now I understand better. The confusion came from the translation. Runden are Laps in English.

    Unfortunately, you cannot customize the Laps table on the website, but you can either copy and paste it into Excel, or you can export it in the CSV file format, and then reorder it to your liking.

    OK. Yes. Laps. Thx. :-)

    Of course that´s a possibility. But not for a quick overview.

    Dont know whats the idea behind that change, as the order was as described since years (had my first garmin 2011). And I have to admit: this change doesnt make Garmin Connect easier to use for me.

    No idea why they changed it, but from from the point of view of the usaibility there is no difference. It is just a matter of getting used to it. I mean if it were in this way since the beginning and they changed it reversely now, you would certainly complain about it in the exact same way. After a few days you'll get used to it. Frankly told, I did not even notice that the column order changed, and I see no reason why I should prefere the order in one way over another one.

    Sorry to say. If there´s no difference in usability for you, that´s your point of view.

    I for myself can say that there is a difference. That´s what I wanted to state in my first post (all other parameters are connected with the "(Lap)-Time" and not with "Total Time". For me it´s easier to read.

    And of course one will get used to it. But that´s not the point in this discussion (at least for me). Beside that: customizable columns are a wish of many users here since ages. ;-)

    And did anyone already ask Garmin to implement it? Asking here on the user forum, it is relatively useless, since we can't change it. Well, I could, with the GCOverrides, but so far I stopped the development because of lack of interrest, and am just adjusting things I need to improve for myself.
