Hi. I have a Wahoo Elemnt Bolt. Question on the climbing screen..

If i zoom all the way where it only shows the terrain and the speed, there are squares on the screen. Any idea how much the distance is for each square? How many meters/feet or km/miles (wide) when zoomed all the way in?

I have the same device and read somewhere (forget where now) that the zoom levels on the climbing screen are (x-axis): entire planned route, remaining planned route, next 10 miles, and next 2 miles. I think the device scales the y-axis to the highest and lowest points within whatever view you are using. I'm not sure the horizontal lines actually mean anything in terms of feet/meters to be climbed.

That's one screen I really wish they would improve. Maybe they could offer an option to remove all the data fields and use the top third of the screen to show the upcoming profile of the route. Then they could use the bottom two-thirds to show the actual climb with each horizontal line representing some number of feet (user selectable).
