Cannot find old 'drag/highlight' feature to show stats within a section of an activity

Hi all. Strava used to have a very useful feature whereby a user could highlight a section of an activity and see what the distance and elevation gain was within it. 

I now cannot use that feature - when I highlight a section by dragging it it no longer gives the stats for that section. 

It used to be available on the main 'Analysis' button, but now that is no longer a button. 

Does anyone know how to still access this drag feature to get the stats within a section? 

Thanks

David

As I'm aware this is only possible for outdoor rides (at least this doesn't exists for runs and swims). Maybe you have there another sports type or an indoor activity.

Hi Jan, you are right! Excellent. Thank you for your help! 

it would be great if it also showed the loss as well as the gain. I doubt this is very high on the Strava developers priority list however. 

Cheers!
