MapView/MapTrackView are only available on devices that have on-board maps.

So the f6 pro devices have them, while the f6 non-pro don't. The f5+ devices have them, but only the f5x for f5 devices.

Are you doing things in your monkey.jungle based on the different devices?

the class xxxview is the following:

class DrakeBallonFlight01View extends WatchUi.MapTrackView

i think it is impossible that fenix 6s, 6pro solar etc have not the MapTrackView!! 8-|

This is a bit complicated, but Sapphire and Solar variants notwithstanding, there are really only 5 kinds of Fenix 6 devices, as far as CIQ is concerned:

- Non-pro: fenix6, fenix6s

- Pro: fenix6pro, fenix6spro, fenix6xpro

Any sapphire/solar variants are functionally equivalent as far as CIQ is concerned (except of course for any solar-related features).

Having said all of that, MapTrackView is only supported for devices that have maps (not just navigation). For the Fenix 6 family, only the Pro variants support maps.

So I would expect you to get an error for Fenix 6S (including Solar), but not Fenix 6 Pro.

thank you for the reply ... yes ... i wrongly assumed that navigation means maps. Sorry for that, i promise to better check for device compatibility next before ask!

MapView/MapTrackView are only available on devices that have on-board maps.

So the f6 pro devices have them, while the f6 non-pro don't. The f5+ devices have them, but only the f5x for f5 devices.

None of the va/venu devices have them.

the fr945/955 have them, but other forerunners don't
