Garmin Fenix 7X - Display question

New Topic
This topic has been archived, and won't accept reply postings.

I apologise in advance for what is probably a silly question but I've struggled to work out the settings for total time on the display.

My usual face for an event has time of day, distance, elevation and total elapsed time.  I use the elapsed time to look at progress against cut-offs or planned timing points so it needs to be the total time elapsed (not moving time).

I've set this up on my new Fenix 7X Sapphire but the elapsed time keeps splitting like this:  https://flic.kr/p/2oMURih

Page 138 of the manual https://www8.garmin.com/manuals/webhelp/GUID-C001C335-A8EC-4A41-AB0E-BAC434... suggests "Elapsed time" is "The total time recorded. For example, if you start the activity timer and run for 10 minutes, then stop the timer for 5 minutes, then start the timer and run for 20 minutes, your elapsed time is 35 minutes." which I assumes would be the time from starting to now.

This is what I want and I don't want the time to split into legs.  Am I missing something in the settings?

Any help is gratefully received.  I've tried various time settings and used Google and YouTube but come up blank.

That is correct? Its showing 1 hour and 9 minutes. The hour numbers are smaller as there is only so much space on the display.. 

In reply to Garethza:

I am such a dunce!

On my original Fenix 1 the hours were the same size and I assumed this would be the same.  I've just not realised it's the hours.  Thanks!

Does this get a prize for the most idiotic question ever??
