Add cue button to quick set slope in resistence mode [Feature Request]

When training and need to switch from erg to resistance mode (for example when burst come) would be nice to have some memory button to quickly recall a value of slope to set the resistence. Also the slider is not an easy adjustable method when training. Would be better a +/- button or arrows < >.

On my iPad, at the end of the slider there is a +/- button. This is what I use all the time as the slider would be difficult to be precise, particularly during a hard interval. During V02 workouts, I remain in Resistance mode during the valleys and ensure the power is the same, so I don’t need to adjust mid interval ideally. Yesterday, the VO2 interval was a bit easy at my preferred cadence, so I just hit +1 twice to raise the power. You can keep that screen open during the intervals as it doesn’t pause the workout.

Also, there is a number next to the slider that tells you exactly where you are. For example, I’m usually around 40. Then, as the workout progresses there is some power fade so I may need to go up 1-2. Or, depending on the workout I may need to adjust for valleys versus intervals to stay at my preferred cadence and power. So, I may be 40 in the valleys and between 39-41 for the intervals.

I Use the pc version and i see only the slider i need to check more carefully might be my eyes with the age are starting to fail seriously or it’s only the oxigen missing :rofl:

With a PC, usually you can click on the slider and then use the left-right arrow keys to move it. Once you click on the slider, you should be able to use the arrow keys going forward (assuming you didn’t click on something else).

On the PC, if you hit the T key to switch between modes, it usually remembers whatever resistance % you had previously during this workout. So during your warmup you could hit T to get to resistance mode, tap right arrow to get to the desired resistance, and then T to go back to erg mode. Next time you switch, it should remember the resistance setting.

I didnt check about keyboard shortcut. This will help for sure. It remians that during the training some button with memory function can be useful, in case we need to set different level of effort/slope. Thanks a lot for your suggestion.
