Course Creation Method -> menu closes automatically
Just a minor ui issue. When Course Creation Method, it will close menu automatically, when opened. Firmware 10.50.
Steps to reproduce:
1) Open Main menu
2) Open Course Planner
3) Choose Create Course
4) Choose either 'Direct Path' or 'Roads & Tails'
5) Press lower right corner menu
Expected results: Menu stays open
Whats actually happens: Menu closes automatically after a second

After "4)" the 'Add Point' menu is shown, and selecting the option menu does nothing other than display 'No Options' indefinitely for me, and stays that way until pressing the back arrow....

Re: Course Creation Method -> menu closes automatically
When I am at step 4) and choose on of those two options, I am NOT having 'Add Point', but instead, I am getting a help screen with information, before afterwards getting to the 'Add Point'?
See my screenshots.
Step1: I choose 'Roads & Trails'
Step2: This is the screen, where I am getting first send and where this described issue ouccurs.
Step3: After clicking on 'Get Started', I am on the screen you are describing. I agree, that I don't have here that issue.
Could this be related to not having any Courses installed?

Re: Course Creation Method -> menu closes automatically
Ah, yes, I do not get that screen once I have courses on the device.
There are still no menu options from the 'Help' screen, so it is, in my opinion, better that the device closes the 'useless' option menu after displaying 'No Options' for a brief period of time.
In a perfect world, screens with zero options would NOT display the Option Menu icon period.

Re: Course Creation Method -> menu closes automatically
Yes, I agree here But it's still inconsitent behavior to all other menus, which just show "no options" and do not close automatically But yes, your solution would be the best. As I said, a minor UI issue.gpsrchive wrote: ↑Thu Nov 04, 2021 12:23 am There are still no menu options from the 'Help' screen, so it is, in my opinion, better that the device closes the 'useless' option menu after displaying 'No Options' for a brief period of time.

Garmin replied and said, that they created an internal ticket with low priority, so it's unknown, whereever this will be fixed.

Re: Course Creation Method -> menu closes automatically
Has been the 'Get Started' menu removed? Without having any Courses, I am not getting that menu anymore with firmware 10.80?

Re: Course Creation Method -> menu closes automatically
That is the really useless 'Help' page, and it has been slightly modified for firmware version 1080, and, again, this is demonstrated in the GPSrChive > Montana 7x0 > Main Menu > Course Planner page.
