ETA at the destination and time to the destination show _ _: _ _ if I select direct path.
When navigating on the road, the time is displayed.

Have tested different maps but it is the same error.

Montana 750i FW 10.80

My Montana 750i FW 10.80 shows all these numbers properly in the Trip Computer Data Fields after selecting a waypoint, then choosing 'Direct Routing' activity.

What is your work-flow?

Can you provide screen captures to show the issue?

I made a small film of 40 seconds to make it easier to see what it looks like.
Now I was fast due to a maximum of 50 mb in upload but the result is the same.

On the right side at the top I have time to the destination,
below it says ETA to the destination.

First I chose the car the shortest time then direct route then I repeated both.

It will be the same result regardless of whether it is address, waypoint etc.

I just turned mine on for the first time in a few weeks, took it outside for it to connect to satellites, once it connected I went into the Where To menu and selected a waypoint, tapped Go and it did the same thing, no ETA at Destination and also no Time to Destination, they remained blank, the pink line was shown on the map and the distance to destination changed as I walked towards the destination waypoint.
I noticed there was no beep when tapping Go like there usually is when starting navigation.
Tried a couple of different waypoints, same thing no ETA or TTD, no beep either.

So then I stopped navigation, powered it down and went back inside.
I realised I forgot to check which firmware version so pushed the power button to turn it back on, nothing happened.
Pushed it again, nothing.
Pushed and held it like you do for a reset, still nothing.
Took the battery out for about 30 seconds, put it back in and the power button worked as expected.
Started up ok, firmware version 10.50.
Went back outside and connected to satellites again, Where To, Recent Finds, selected the same waypoint, tapped Go, it beeped, the pink line showed again and the ETA & TTD data fields were working as expected showing the times...weird

My Route settings are:
Direct Routing - Yes
Lock on Road - No
Route Transitions - Auto
Course Navigation Method - Direct Path

The above was done with the Activity set to Hiking and a non-routable map.
I then changed the setting Direct Routing to No, then changed the Activity to Motorcycle Driving and tried to navigate to the waypoint again, this time I got a message saying Detailed Maps do not support automotive, motorcycle or ATV routing.
Tapped ok on the message and the pink line is there and the ETA & TTD data fields are working as expected.

I wonder if this bug might have something to do with Garmin's disabling of routing mentioned in the message...

Garmin have been notified, we must wait now to see how they respond!

I discovered that the data fields ETA & TTD do not work with Direct Path.

If I create a track and record the trip or creating a track and pause immediately, the data fields ETA & TTD work as usual.

If I delete the track, the data fields ETA & TTD stop working again.

The data field barometer works perfectly until I creating a track, then the barometer stays where it is or shows the value 1013 if I open the page after the track has started.
If I delete the track, the barometer shows the correct value again.

Oxy% is an IQ data field that uses the barometer and it is not affected by this error

This error is easy to test and repeat.

Anyone knows, if that has been fixed?

Still wrong with firmware 14.80

Maybe next update.

Did anyone tested with 15.20 and 16.50?

Still wrong with firmware 16.50
