Navigation "data screen" field not populating properly (I think).

CReed over 2 years ago

I would like the "destination" field to show the name of the next course point.

I have "destination location" selected for the data field.

It remains blank. Courses I've tried have been built in Garmin Connect on a PC.

I don't see a "course point name" data field.

Any help is appreciated.

The top field in the image I posted is set to "Next Waypoint" and shows the next navigation turn. It works properly.

It seems weird to have "Course point distance" but no option to show its name…

aweatherall And it seems your enhancement request has bubbled to the top of the stack, somewhere in 14.20 or 14.50 the behaviour of Next WayPoint has changed. If a course has course points the next Waypoint field is now populated with the next Course Point name (both custom or turn course points) and this updates as each course point position is passed. Works best is Turn Guidance is disabled else they might fight it out for priority.

An excellent enhancement, pity it was not mentioned in the change logs and no-one knew?
