Hello, I have an issue with the fenix 8. In pregious garmin watches, when navigating a created or imported route, I have an elevation plot screen of the route. With the fenix 8, I’m unable to find that screen. How can I create it?
thanks!

I have the same problem. I can see the climb pro ascents and descents, but the totalt elevation screen when following a course is not there.
Try swiping left, and selecting the course you are following. All the navigation screens are there. It’s cumbersome to get to, I hope they change this
Definitely something not working right with data screens.
Trying to set up ahead of a mountain outing tomorrow. If I set as a walk then I have no option to see climbs or route elevation from the settings menu.
If I go to start the activity with a saved route then I can can view climbs before starting but not once it has started, and I can add route elevation under activity settings but not before I start the activity.
If I start as a trail run instead I can view climbs before I start the activity but not route elevation. Once it’s started I can view route elevation and climbs but can’t set these as data screens in activity settings outside of the activity.
If I look at run activity settings I can set route elevation as a data screen but not climbs. If I go to start activity with navigation I can view climbs before starting but not route elevation but once I’ve started I can see neither climbs or route elevation unless I add them, and climbs isn’t an option at all.
honestly it looks a mess at the moment and I use navigation and elevation info all the time as a mountain walker and trail runner. Tomorrow is my first mountain day with the new watch and not sure what I’m going to find when I start using the watch! Needs sorting.
Update: ended up using trail run activity for my walking activity today to get all the data screen options, then changed to a walk in GC and on Strava afterwards. I had route elevation and climb screens both on and worked fine.
They do need settings to give complete customization of data screens with and without navigation and for all activities in the same way.
