Obscurity flags and data field

Hi,

I have question. Is it possible to use obscurity flags in datafield for text positioning (fenix3)? I tried something but I can't define data field content position for 4 data fields (2 up + 2 down). I need something like this:

if (obsc == OBSCURE_LEFT && obsc == OBSCURE_TOP) {
dc.drawText(x, y,Gfx.FONT_XTINY, dataContent, Gfx.TEXT_JUSTIFY_RIGHT);
}
else {
dc.drawText(x, y,Gfx.FONT_XTINY, dataContent, Gfx.TEXT_JUSTIFY_LEFT);
}

Is needed to use OBSCURE_TOP... format or is it possible to use numerical values described in layouts asi "obscurity=7" and so on? I don't know, if I understand it right. Obscurity defines which part of display is hidden?

Thanks, Tomas

AFAIK - that flag can be number or in words. Words work better as they mean something to the cider.
The diff obscurity can be added together to get a whole number.
IIRC 15 = obscure everything top. Bottom. Left. Right.

if (obsc == OBSCURE_LEFT && obsc == OBSCURE_TOP) { dc.drawText(x, y,Gfx.FONT_XTINY, dataContent, Gfx.TEXT_JUSTIFY_RIGHT); }

If you're wanting to see if the obscurity flags are set for top and left, you'll want to or them together:

if( obsc == ( OBSCURE_LEFT | OBSCURE_TOP ) )

Thanks for your answers. I tested the numerical values and it makes me crazy... I will try the (OBSCURE_LEFT | OBSCURE_TOP) method for my project. :)

Have a nice day.

It sounds like you should read a tutorial on bit masking.
