Edge 1050 course line is yellow ... why?

Garminsi 1 month ago

Yesterday during a ride, the course-line color switched from purple to yellow and after a while back to purple.

Why is the course-line displayed in yellow?

Can I turn it off?

I suspect it is because ClimbPro is enabled and it is showing you that section of road is climb. The color corresponds to the climb categorization.

Looks like Climbpro is disabled

And why would the line be yellow, while riding a "green" part (0%-3%) of the climb? Yellow would be 3-6% gradient ...

.. very confusing

The yellow is the categorization of the whole climb. The green section in the elevation plot is just the current part.

I believe that there was bug that is fixed in the 10.x to cover the fact that map was still being colored with climbs even when ClimbPro was off.

Thank you, @aweatherall sounds right, found this in the release notes for the upcoming 10.x version:

"fixed issue where climbs would draw on course despite the setting being disabled."

And this also seems correct: "yellow is the categorization of the whole climb. The green section in the elevation plot is just the current part."
