autoLap screen notification & custom app

im not sure if this is a bug or just the way I code it currently.
When session.addlap is called, the systemwide default autolaps screen comes on. (Some like it - me cos it suits what the lap is supposed to be doing, some don't - the golf score app)

Anyways -

1) the autolap setting is not being honored. I think. If I set secondary field as distance or time or x, it will still show as total time. My guess is factory default is total time - hence it is honoring that?
2) to dismiss the autolap instantly - one would u squally press the ESC or any other keys like up/dn. If I press the ESC key, I exit the app (!). My code currently uses the ESC key to either ESC(exit app if the session is null and is not recording) or add a lap. When autolap screen comes on, I press ESC, it will exit the app. (Ignoring my code instructions)

If not mistaken (I forget.) if I press the up/dn key. The screen is dismissed.

Also - if I use HR ALERT, in my custom app, I will get the alert tone but not the alert screen. So, it's at opposite of the autolap.

Would be great to get some consistency.

Btw - has the autolap at 8.05km got fixed in the latest FW for the F3?

Welcome to the "Twilight Zone" as you are in that strange place between the FW folks and the CIQ folks! :)

Seriously, this sound like a hard one!

i think I'm mistaken on the HR alert. It's coming from my 910xt (my control in my app evaluation)
The HR alert doesn't come on. (But I will test further by turning off my HR alerts in my 910)

As an aside, I may be imagining things but... If I press session.autolap, the GPS gets wonky for a period of time when the autolap screen notification comes on.

I'm testing further.

if( evt.getKey() == Ui.KEY_ESC ) {
			if ( (session != null)  && session.isRecording() )  { 
				session.addLap(); 
			} else {
				Ui.popView(Ui.SLIDE_IMMEDIATE);
			}
			return true;
        }

if you look at the above code, it as tho when auto lap comes on, the recording session is stopped (could this be the same reason why the GPS seems to be "off" in those instance?)
