Description
If you like the datafield you can thank me by sending a beer: https://paypal.me/GavrielF or at least write a positive review with 5 stars ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐. Datafield to display ascent, elevation gain related measures. Ascent+ Datafield displays the elapsed ascent / remaining ascent / total ascent / elapsed ascent % / remaining ascent % given the total ascent. Note: because Garmin doesn't provide the total ascent of a course / route the user has to set the estimated total ascent at the beginning of the course. Note: although Garmin provides a value called "totalAscent" it is essentially the elapsed ascent (the total ascent since the beginning of the activity) so Ascent+ uses the "total ascent" as the total estimated ascent of the activity / course / route. ## Installation This is a data field.
