Fenix 7x: keeps going back to workout screen

I suspect this is ‘as designed’ with the assumption that, if in an activity, this is the main screen(s) you want displayed and anything else is temporary plus you might forget you started an activity.   I’m only speculating here. What is it on the watch face that you want to have showing all the time?  

Just one i am using, when there is no activity, first one in the list when you enter watchfaces.

I start walk activity and i hold back/lap button for watchface screen, and that works, but after sometime my watch goes back to workout screen

Thats by design. 

I wasn’t clear.  Why do you need/want to show your watch face while recording an activity?  Most data (current time as an example) can be added to a data screen (or a new screen) within the activity. 

I have the same annoyance with my Fenix 7. When doing a long climb I'd rather it record most data in the background so I can see the time and not need to auto lock the buttons to avoid accidental button presses. I just want it to stay on the screen that I leave it on.

If anybody knows how to do this I'd also love to hear about it  thanks!
