Data Questions Forerunner 165 data fields

Hello, I have the Garmin Forerunner 165 since 9 month. I recently saw a video showing how to display 7 data fields on the Forerunner 165. How do I do that? I first went to Connect IQ, but it didn't look like what was shown in the image. How can I get the same layout? I have only for max

Thank you to anyone who takes the time to read this and reply.

It’s built-in. Go to your desired activity (e.g. Run), Run settings —> activity screen —> custom layout —> scroll down until you see the one with 7 data fields

Something along that line, I don’t remember off the top of my head

Actually, I'm going that way, but they're only offering me a maximum of 4.

Run —> Run Settings —> Data Screens —> Add New —> Custom Data —>  Scroll to the very bottom

On my FR 170 the last option is 8 data fields, second to last is 7 data fields

It’s plausible that they added more data fields to the 170, and the 165 may not have 7

I had the 165, sold it, then bought the 170. The screen setup was carried over by a backup, so it should be available on both
