26.00 issue - route has changed color

After the 26.00 install, my course lines are all a shade of red, vs green and white, as they used to be. It is much harder for me to read with the new color scheme.

I can't find a setting that allows me to go back to the old scheme. Does anyone have a workaround, or is experiencing the same issue?

A SENSATIONAL ANNOUNCEMENT! :-)

NOTHING IS WHAT IT SEEMS TO BE!

NO INTENTIONAL COLOR CHANGE HAPPENED!

IT MUST HAVE BEEN JUST ANOTHER BUG!

THE EVIDENCE:

On the second screenshot there is a short course…

Same thing here. I am currently traveling so don't have much time to research this issue. Hopefully the bug (can't be a feature) will be fixed soon.

It appears that the ability to edit the map theme isn't supported on the Enduro. So the default changed for some reason, but because of the stripped down software on the watch, we don't have the ability to modify it.

Same here! Very annoying makes navigating on a watch meant for ultra runners very difficult!

Please fix! The course we're following and the track we're leaving have to be very different colors!

Anyone get a fix from Garmin on this? It's been a couple of months. I was talking to support, they said they'd fix it, then nothing... No replies to my emails either. Are my expectations too high?

No I'm afraid not. I also had a number of emails from my ticket saying they would fix it but nothing yet. I can't believe it's hard to fix. I'll chase the support team who were emailing me before.

The route color change was intentionally done by our engineering team.

Thanks Chris! I have also recieved a reply from my email to the support team earlier today. Really impressive response rate and I appreciate the updates thanks. Hopefully the fix isn't too far away.

Problem appeared on firmware upgrade. Prior behavior was to draw course (ahead) in green, and route (back) in black. Current behavior is to draw both in red. Usually annoying but still functional. But if you stray and try to get back on course, it can get pretty confusing.

I just encountered this problem when hiking in the Austrian Alps. To be frank - it makes the course feature next to useless. PLEASE fix this!
