Hi and thanks for your response Garmin-Hannah.

Yes, if I toggle "use system settings" to off the watch obey my color selected! But as soon as I turn it on again the line becomes red. And I can't find such…

This does not work at all for me, my track is red whatever color I choose

kompressor does it work for you?

Still red, despite the settings saying "light blue"

Red it is, I guess. Which is fine, it's just some road type or surface around me is also red, so it's hard to see. That said, if I am relying on a 1" circle to navigate, I've got bigger problems!

Do you have any additional maps installed?

I've got Garmins Topo Pro, but it does not matter if I use that one or not, the history line is still red... (and "conflicting" with the red paths in Topo Active map where that one is used)

I see that both Fenix 7 & 8 have a fix for this in their latest stable releases.

Garmin-Hannah is that fix in the pipe for 965 as well?

I am not able to reproduce this on my Forerunner 965 as my track colors do change once I change it. Yes the Fenix 7 and 8 have a fix/workaround. Could you try the public workaround on your 965 like we have for the Fenix 7 and 8?

Press the Start/Stop button
Select an activity you would like to change the track color in
Select (Activity Name) Settings
Select Map Settings
Toggle Off "Use System Settings"

If that does not work on your Forerunner 965, we will need to look into this more. Do I have permission to email you?

Please feel free to e-mail me if you need further info.

Thank you, this does change the track log color to something other than red.

I am curious where the "system setting" is for this, though, so I can make all activities a different color.

FYI, on a 955 (pretty much the same firmware)
