User settings - font !?

If I wanted to offer different fonts for users should where shuld I load them? In the layout function as usual? Or in the onshow?

If I load in the layout function will that get called again if the user changes the setting in the garmin app?

If I load in the onshore wont that mean the font will get loaded again and again?

Hello,

I've a question on export app in prg format.

My app doesn't present the settings menu in my watch.

All is fine in eclipse.
I don't understand if i forget something.

Thanks

Adding onSettingsChanged() does not make your app configurable. You have to expose the properties that you want users to configure via the resource system (the settings and properties stuff is covered in the programmers guide section on theresource compiler).

You won't see the settings functionality in Express or Connect Mobile if you sideload your apps, only the eclipse plugin. If you don't see them there, you're probably doing something wrong.

Hello,
Thank you for answer
Everything is now OK in eclipse.

But what must i do to have the settings functionality in Express or Connect Mobile ?

Must i publish the app ?

Sorry for my question

Thanks

Yes. Other than testing the functionality on the simulator with the App Settings Editor, that is the only way that I know of.
