graphic data fields on top of the screen
Answered
I'm sorry if somebody else already asked this and, in case, send me the link to the post.
What I would like is to have graphic data fields on the top part of the screen. I woul love to have power and HR in graphic mode but it's only possible, to my understanding, in the lower part of the display, the part that gets covered if you have messages, live segments and so on.
That's why I had to switch back to the old setup with HR and Power on top but sometimes you don't get what is what ad first glimpse.
Would you please consider a fully customizable profile settings?
thanks guys. I love my Karoo 2 and the effort you put into your bike computers to make them better

Hi Simone! Thank you for your feedback- I'm glad that you love your Karoo 2! We're always looking for ways to make our products even better, and many of our best ideas come from users like you.
You can customize each profile layout but, as you've found, graphic data fields only show up towards the bottom of the screen in the available profiles, with the exception of map cards. Some map card options do allow for 1 graph field above the map along with numeric data fields.
Alternately, you can swipe down messages, Strava segments, etc that pop up in front of data fields, though I realize that is not always a convenient option when you're exerting max effort.
I will pass the suggestion for fully customizable profiles along. Thanks!

hi guys, still wondering why it's not possible to have graphical data fields in the upper part of the screen. With live segments integrations would be very useful to have the HR and Power gauge always visible up there. We have a beautiful color display but I feel like its power and clarity are not used to full potential.
let me know what you think

It's nice to have an option for graphical data fields at the top of the screen, here is the scenario where this is a problem for me:
I've Di2 gears display, when the hill climb graphic comes on it block out my gear display. If the Di2 gears graphical display was on top, I can see my current gear info along with current climb status!

I'd like to revisit this request and put it back on the agenda - I really like the climber function but even in the pop-up mode it blocks the graphical fields on the bottom. My base screen has both graphical heart rate data fields on the bottom which I have come to appreciate, but I can't see either of them when Climber is active.
My ideal solution would be to have a graphical data field on the top for one of the heartbeat fields followed with a full width numerical field which I would use for Gradient then at least two 1/2 width fields on the bottom.
That would make the Climber feature much more useful to me.

Me too!
That top field should have the option of being a graphical display. Power would be my choice but heart rate would be an alternate choice for me as well. I full expected this to be available in the new Karoo but that is not the case. Maybe give the option to rearrange field by dragging them on the data page layout page. -
The last we heard from Support on this request was three years ago. Any updates on the request status?
My two favorite features that set my Karoo apart from the competition are the Heart Rate/Zone and Gears graphical fields. But I can't use them and the Climber or Strava Segments drawers at the same time.
With the K3 I should be able to configure the 4 rows of the graphical screens to have 1-4 graphics fields, mixed with any combination of data fields, in any order I choose.
Otherwise, why buy the K3?
