follow a course

Using the 5 x for about a week and apart from the imprecise cardio sensor I feel good,
I have a doubt, in the old Fenix i can follow a course , such as in trail run mode, taking it after the start position , and he knew that I was on right track and showed me the data correctly, such as remaining distance and off course distance , with 5x I tried to run following a downloaded track but, starting about 500 meters after the starting point "virtual" it continues to tell me to come back at the start and so all the values are incorrect, it seems to me that it does not consider the fact of being "returned" to the path, so for example the distance from the end continues to grow by adding up the way to go to return to the point of starts and then at the end,,,
I tried but I can not find anything about it in the settings .. Someone has verified the same thing ??

I confirm.
Did a downloaded course yesterday.
I too had started my activity and only then loaded the course from navigation (i.e. after the activity start and some 100 meteres or so into the course).

And yes, it would not pick up course where I started the navigation, with distance to end information field on map growing as I continued to move away from the start and all the ETA/ETEs/Virtual partner screens screwed up.

With my F3 this was not an issue.

So definitely a bug.
