Subject: Missing "Download" button in Options > Metrics to install Stryd User Metrics

[Charles-André Coste]

Hi everyone,

I am a new GoldenCheetah user (version 3.7.1]) on Windows 11.

I am trying to set up my environment for Stryd. I have successfully imported my FIT files and verified that the Stryd data is correctly present as XData in Data > Raw Data > Developer. I am also using a Python script to map the Stryd power to the main power series.

However, I am unable to "feed" my Stryd charts (like "Stryd Overview Run") because I cannot find the way to download the necessary User Metrics.

The issue: In Options > Metrics, there is no "Download" button or cloud icon visible at the bottom of the metrics list to access the Curated collection. I have checked the "Custom" tab as well, but the download button there is grayed out and seems intended for local files.

My interface looks exactly like the one in the GitHub Wiki (User Guide), which also doesn't seem to show a clear download action in that specific view.

Questions:

1. Is the "Download" button for metrics located elsewhere in recent versions?
2. If this is a known UI issue, is there a way to manually trigger the download of the "Stryd" curated metrics pack?
3. Alternatively, where can I find the formulas to manually create the metrics like Air_Power, Form_Power, or LSS in the Custom tab so they are recognized by the Stryd Overview chart?

Thanks in advance for your help!

Best regards, Charles-André

Hi Charles, you have uncovered a hole in docs and a bug:

The hole is Metrics > Custom screenshot is missing at the wiki

The bug is Import/Download are disabled (grayed out) when there is no custom metric, I will fix that.

The workaround is to create a custom metric using (+) then Ok so Download is enabled, once you download the metrics you like you can remove the sample one using (-)
