White/Black color selections invisible in Day/Night mode [Bug 76]

Unread post by ConiKost »

If Montana 700 series is running in 'Night' mode and you open a track, black color line as choice is invisble.
Running Firmware 9.20.

Steps to reproduce:
0) Ensure, Montana is in 'Night mode' (Setup -> Display -> Appearance -> Mode=Night).
1) Open on main menu 'Saved Tracks'.
2) Click on 'Color'.
3) Black line as choice is shown invisible, as it's black color on black background - so it's invisible.

Hello

What is a bit normal, if the background was white the white line would also be invisible, is this black line visible before the firmware update version 9.20

We tested and found that White is also not visible while display is in Day mode.

We then checked some other devices to see if this was normal, and to our surprise, those models used a contrasting outline when displaying track/activity colors, so this does indeed appear to be a Montana 7x0 bug.

Garmin have been notified.

Show on Map - White/Black invisible on list in Day/Night mode [Bug 76]

Unread post by ConiKost »

If you have tracks in black or white color, the color is being shown without any border in the list for 'Show on Map'. This is basically the same problem as in [Missing Feature 9], but a different place.
