Live Segments while using Power Guide

If I use a power guide, the 1040 never shows the segments that have been starred.  If I just press Bike -> Start on my Fenix 6, the starred segments popup on the Fenix.  Why doesn't the 1040 do live segments? What is the proper way to see segments?  No power guide? No navigation? 

Thanks

    A couple of things.

    When using a course/Power guide the segments need to be embedded into the course file for the Edge to report them. This requires that the course be authored in Strava and synced to Garmin Connect.

    When power guidance is running it will start segments that are in the course file, but it will not automatically switch pages to the segment page if you are on the power guidance page. The assumption is that if you are viewing the power guidance page then you are following the guidance and wish to continue doing that. You can switch over to the segment page manually. If you are not on the power guidance page then it will automatically switch to the segment page when it starts one.

    Ok. I think the first requirement is hey since the Fenix shows the segments. I'll try a power guide ride but have the Edge sounds a screen other than the power guide. 

    Seems as if the Edge would switch screens automatically to the segment and then switch back after the segment is over.

    Or, show the segment embedded in the power guide screen the way it shows a climb embedded in the power guide screen during a climb.

    Anyways, let me try to verify the second option of your answer. Thanks so much for the quick reply!
