Integrating Training Status into Watchface

Thank you for the response. How can I access the training status data? I've selected the Complication Subscriber permission in the manifest file, but I'm unable to retrieve the training status using Complications.getComplication(26). Are there any additional steps or settings I need to configure to access it?

See the sample posted in https://forums.garmin.com/developer/connect-iq/f/discussion/349473/simple-example-wf-that-shows-a-bunch-of-things

There, the complication for HR is used on devices with complications, but it's basically the same for this.

26 (or Complications.COMPLICATION_TYPE_TRAINING_STATUS) isn't a Complications.Id (as required by getComplication()), it's a number. So I would expect that to either crash at runtime (if type checking is disabled) or to trigger a type check error at compile time.

This is a Complications.Id:

var trainingStatusComplicationsId = new Complications.Id(Complications.COMPLICATION_TYPE_TRAINING_STATUS);

Here's a partial example:

App:

import Toybox.Application;
import Toybox.Lang;
import Toybox.WatchUi;
import Toybox.Complications;

class ComplicationFaceApp extends Application.AppBase {
    function initialize() {
        AppBase.initialize();
    }

    var trainingStatusComplicationId;
    function onStart(state as Dictionary?) as Void {
        trainingStatusComplicationId = new Complications.Id(Complications.COMPLICATION_TYPE_TRAINING_STATUS);
        Complications.registerComplicationChangeCallback(self.method(:onComplicationChanged));
        Complications.subscribeToUpdates(trainingStatusComplicationId);
    }

    function onComplicationChanged(complicationId as Complications.Id) as Void {
        if (ComplicationFaceView != null && complicationId == trainingStatusComplicationId) {
            try {
                var complication = Complications.getComplication(complicationId);
                System.println("complication value = " + complication.value);
                complicationFaceView.updateTrainingStatus(complication.value);
            } catch (e) {

            }
        }
    }

    var complicationFaceView;
    function getInitialView() as Array<Views or InputDelegates>? {
        complicationFaceView = new ComplicationFaceView();
        return [ complicationFaceView ] as Array<Views or InputDelegates>;
    }
}

Layout xml:

<layout id="WatchFace">
    <label id="TrainingStatusLabel" x="center" y="center" font="Graphics.FONT_LARGE" justification="Graphics.TEXT_JUSTIFY_CENTER" color="Graphics.COLOR_BLUE" />
</layout>

View:

import Toybox.Graphics;
import Toybox.Lang;
import Toybox.System;
import Toybox.WatchUi;

class ComplicationFaceView extends WatchUi.WatchFace {

    function initialize() {
        WatchFace.initialize();
    }

    function onLayout(dc as Dc) as Void {
        setLayout(Rez.Layouts.WatchFace(dc));
    }

    var trainingStatus = null;

    function onUpdate(dc as Dc) as Void {
        if (trainingStatus != null) {
            var view = View.findDrawableById("TrainingStatusLabel") as Text;
            // '"" +' is leftover code from when this was used for heart rate (which is a number)
            view.setText("" + trainingStatus); 
        }
        View.onUpdate(dc);
    }

    function updateTrainingStatus(updatedTrainingStatus) {
        trainingStatus = updatedTrainingStatus;
        WatchUi.requestUpdate();
    }
}

Note that this doesn't seem to work properly in the sim (SDK 6.4.2). The returned training status is always "No Result" even when it's changed via Settings > Set Training Status. Hopefully it works on a real watch (haven't given it a try yet.)

However, the same code works as expected in the simulator with Complications.COMPLICATION_TYPE_HEART_RATE (for example).

I'm in a reverse situation; it works in the simulator, but on the watch, the watch face crashes.

On the watch, you can find the crash logs in the apps/logs/ciq_log.* files and see what happened.

If you installed from the app store, also check your ERA reports.

What device?  It could be that COMPLICATION_TYPE_TRAINING_STATUS isn't available on that device.  What is the error message you see?

It is a Venu 2 Plus. 

This is the error message:
