Live segment - Distance to go on regular data screen

Hi,
Given garmin edge 520 with the latest firmware, a premium strava account, Is it possible to display the "distance to go" of a segment on my regular training pages?

For example, I want to display 4 data screens,

Power 3s av
Lap Average power
Laptime
Distance to go.

Is this possible?

Alternatively can you customize what is displayed on the segment view for the above if using on a regular data page is not possible?

Thanks in advance

very interested in it. Garmin must work in it.

We need it as soon as possible.

or alternately, add the power (3s)/power(10sec) to the live segment screen

I agree. Live segments without power/speed is not much use.

Please implement this.

I ride a regular ~40 minute segment and the (unchanging) time-to-beat number at the top of the segment screen has to be the least helpful of any on the 520. Interesting datapoint, possibly, but not useful for the segment itself. Garmin needs to fix this, pronto.

Are you buying, bloom? :-)

It is incredible. One year and we must change screen to see and super important info

Implement this¡¡¡¡

Was about to ask this question then spotted this thread

If you regularly use live segments then something like this is essential. The option to either move the "behind/ahead" data into a regular data screen or have power/speed display in the live segments is what we need to be able to properly gauge how we are performing through a segment.

I had a look through all the Connect IQ apps and there are no apps that play with this data field either.

Is this on the new feature list Garmin?

It don't seem difficult to implement. I don't understand Garmin.

That would be great, I'm not too worried about a map when using segments because I usually cycle the same route and know where I'm going.

For me I'd prefer to customise the segment display, remove the map and add other metrics to it.
