Is there a way to show Estimated Total Time when navigating?

I've been having some better luck recently navigating on the 5X by using the ridewithgps site to create my course with a cue sheet etc, gives me the distance and stats to the next point etc.

One thing I can't seem to get is a data field that gives the estimated total time it's going to take to finish the entire course, there is a "ETA - The estimated time of day when you will reach the final destination (adjusted to the local time of the destination). You must be navigating for this data to appear." so the watch is calculating something very similar, but I'd like the total time not the time of day.

This would be really great if you are trying to target a specific total time to finish the course, at the moment to do that you need to do some math if your head to work it out via the ETA.

This sounds like something it should do, so not sure if I'm missing something obvious here :)

Thanks!

Are you looking for the ETE data field?
and which app are you using...

You have it on the Virtual Partner data screen.

No ETE is "The estimated time remaining until you reach the final destination. You must be navigating for this data to appear." I want the estimated total time, not the estimated time left which is what ETE is. Say you are in an race trying to get a sub x hours time, you could monitor your estimated finish time.

You have it on the Virtual Partner data screen.

Yes this does it, but you cannot use Virtual Partner when Navigating as far as I'm aware.

You can use virtual partner while navigating....that's part of what its for, just add it to the data screens, if it suits your needs.

No problem with virtual partner during navigating. At least if you use follow course. I use it all the time. It's not perfect, but mostly do a good job estimating. For some reason it need some time. From the beginning it's terrible.

I will give this another try next time I'm out, for some reason I thought you couldn't use the Virtual Partner at the same time as Navigating. Thanks!
