[REQUEST] Watch face...

Former Member over 10 years ago

One more request from me, I think it should be simple, combines a few elements...looking for a clean implementation.

1) Top, half circle, stretching from 9:00 to 3:00 on the dial, the activity/move progress bar, thinking half the thickness of the current one to allow for the other elements, color change as completion progresses.
2) Bottom, partial circle, stretching from 5:00 to 7:00 or so on the dial, battery status, similar bar and coloring to activity/move bar
3) Simple watchface emulating current digital type...
A) Bold hour, standard minutes (no seconds)
B) Below that...date (24 MAR) and sunrise/sunset time.

Thanks...

Sometimes, it's better to draw your concept in Paint or something like that..

Geoff,

Are you looking for something like this? - I am working on trying to make the dual time zone function not hard coded to the Mountain time zone. Sunrise/sunset are missing, and would be hard to do because I can't get position information.

There should be a "like" button here!

Yea man, that pretty much hits the nail on the head...couple of comments and questions...

1) Would rather not have seconds shown, no need to take up that watch face real estate.
2) Would prefer the time to not have the colon either...hour to be bolded, minutes not bolded.
3) No need for the dual time zone either.
4) No worries on the sunrise/sunset deal, that's no biggie.
5) Does the move bar change colors as it progresses?
6) What's the red bar under the date signify?
7) What are the numbers on the left and right side of the move bar?
8) I think the move and batter bars could be a bit thinner too, but that's no biggie...don't really need the batter percentage either.

Awesome stuff! Thanks a ton!

A couple of answers

1) Would rather not have seconds shown, no need to take up that watch face real estate
- the seconds are only active when the watch gets moved, for casual glancing, they disappear.
2) Would prefer the time to not have the colon either...hour to be bolded, minutes not bolded.
ditching the colon is easy, I could change the color of the hours, but there is no access to a bold font - I would have to work on loading my own font to do that.
3) No need for the dual time zone either.
- Ya - I would ditch that for now, it is nice for me when I travel though
4) No worries on the sunrise/sunset deal, that's no biggie.
5) Does the move bar change colors as it progresses? -
- the green bar is a steps bar, it does not change color - I might have to play around with it cycling from red-yellow-green
6) What's the red bar under the date signify?
- that is the move bar - as you sit it will get filled in starting with 60 min of sitting and going up to 120 min
7) What are the numbers on the left and right side of the move bar?
- on the left is the number of steps taken and on the right is the goal for the day
8) I think the move and batter bars could be a bit thinner too, but that's no biggie...don't really need the batter percentage either.

Thanks for the input - I can make some of the changes that you requested and place it up on IQ in the coming days.

Didn't even think about the move bar...that rocks...you could easily put that one on the bottom as well to emulate the stock activity screen with the battery percentage bar in the middle.

Nice render. Something which I'm trying to achieve as well.

Yes. I sent it for check and publish. It looks better than analog face I think :) So, thank you for the tip to make "digital" one.
