Feature request: ActivityInfo.state

Former Member over 10 years ago

It would be helpful to have a property with activity state (such a Active, Inactive, Paused). Whether an activity is started can of course be derive this from things as startTime, but whether it is paused is more cumbersome.
This is not an absolute must have, but it would be nice to have.

Yes. I was going to post about that this morning... I'm getting tired of checking that startTime is null to determine if an activity has been started and then checking timerTime against a previous value to see if the activity is paused or not. Super annoying (and problematic if you're playing back a .fit file that isn't using 1 second recording in the simulator).

Agree. Playing with datafields and playingback a fit file not recorded with 1s is a bit anoying.
Checking for null objects everywhere and save previous values to have smooth calculations.

I've reported this request. I know that there are plans to expand some of the activity recording features (for example, you can't currently use auto-pause in an activity with CIQ).

We added the timer state to 2.1.0 earlier this year.
