Current pace variables for dashboard and track stats

For use as a running app, a pace unit (minutes per km) would be great.

Hi Gregor,

dashboard improvements are collected in another place.

Please add your request here:

I think, this question is not related just to dashboard, but to all places where you should see a speed in Locus. So I'm changing this question to idea, so users should vote if interested in such feature.

Hello.

I like the idea, I think part of Locus guide for use in training (sports).

Generally the speed in min / km is called "pace".

It would be good to not exclusive speed or pace, but to show both.

Greetings.

Ah I'm stupid. Are you familiar with Dashboard as Tommi mentioned in his post?

If so, please try it. One of possibilities is to display "Pace" values right on dashboard

In the dashboard have not looked (sorry), but I do not see where the pace is on the track summary information and not see it as a choice as data to display in the graph (y axis pace, distance x axis for example).

I think it would be interesting to see the pace on those screens.

Greetings.

This is correct. Pace value is not visible in track details.

I'm currently working on improved version of screen with point details. Small discussion is here . And when this will be done, I'll start to work on new screen for tracks, where average Pace will be visible between other parameters

Excellent! We will be waiting for the new screen.

Greetings.

I have merged two similar topics together, to give them higher chance to get some votes ;)

Good!

The current pace in dashboard doesn't give real-time pace. It looks more like an average pace. A real-time pace on dashboard is much more useful for runners.

I agree with @grasscap: looks like the current 'pace' is an average page, not a realtime/current pace, is it?

Can a realtime pace be made available, please?

Thanks

For me there should be no need to make a distinction between pace and speed anywhere in the dashboards, recording or stats. It should be speed only, but the unit choice for speed should include mph, kph, minute-mile, minute-km.

However, this shouldn't be a global unit choice, it should be per activity type, or per folder, or per recording profile- however you can manage it so when I'm using my Cycle recording profile it shows kph everywhere, and when I'm using my Running recording profile it shows m/km. Then, no-matter what variation of 'speed' you develop (current, average, lap, moving average, etc), you 'just' need to show it in the current unit type.

The problem on the axis of the speed chart of course is 0kph is infinity in minute-km and it's a non-linear scale.

I'm saddened to see grandiose announcements for v4, of all the new fancy technical things planned for it to do, but still here we are without the basics of units sorted for the very popular form of outdoor acivity known as running.
