SSWHR Baro - Multisport "Distance" vs "Current activity distance" view

[zadow]

Hi all, I am doing a Multisport activities quite often. My most widely setup is that I Ride first and then Run. For a run activity I created a Custom Run mode. On one screen there I have a field with “Current activity distance” and on another screen there is a “Distance” field. Well. What is the difference between them? Every time, when I Ride and then Run, both of these fields reports the same value: ride distance + run distance. I expected that the field “Current activity distance” would display distance for Run only but that is not a case. Is this a bug or feature? If it is a feature, what is the purpose to have to differently names fields which shows the same value? Or am I missing something and using it in wrong way?

Many thanks in advance for any help/recommendations!

I’m 100% sure that when multisporting using base sport modes, duration and distance (walk,run at least) show the current activity data.

I’ll try with 2 custom sports, by chance I never used my custom sets for multisport

just done a very quick test using the 3 fields

• duration
• duration current activity
• duration previous activity

and it works as expected

which app version do you use ?
Try to create a new custom mode, maybe the one you’re using is corrupted or it was made when that field was bugged (I remember something but I’m not sure)

PS
Yes I didn’t use DISTANCE

@sartoric Hm, re-creating sport mode could help, you are right. In the past I had to recreate some sport mode due to malfunctioning and it helped. So, I’ll try to re-create it and will see.
Thanks for the hint!

@sartoric Hi, so I did re-create custom sport mode, and tested it yesterday and it worked. Now I am happy again and I can do my crazy multisports
Thanks for the hint!

@zadow
you’re welcome
… I forgot to write here that I tested DISTANCE outdoor yesterday and it worked as expected
