How to reduce custom font size

hi,

so there is no link witht this but here is how I did to save few kBs with font,

for "low memory devices" I created a special font folder where I get ride of useless font (like for the 245 the barometer icon, temp etc)

AND

on some font, when you put different background color than the one set (for exemple if your background is black, put dc.setColor(0xFFFFFF,0x555555) you could see there is useless space around the icon, get ride of it with the .fnt and you will save few kBs.

hope it will help.

Thanks. I got it. I think spliting the characters into multiparts is a good way just like what you said, which is easy to exlude useless characters as well.

First thing I'd try is turning off antialias on the fonts and see how much you save.  Look at things on a real device vs the sim.

5kB。 But it looks really ugly。 LOL

I have done a lot to reduce memory successfully

- shorten string name with alphabet order one or two characters; shorted properties' name; shorten any string literals as much as possible. Junk code it turns out to be now. lol

- remove dictionaries

- remove Enums

- remove const

- remove switch

- remove if-else clauses with ternary expression

- replace Gfx.COLOR_******

- replace justifications with number after calculation

- load icon fonts when needed

- compress array

- remove useless functions

- remove the inferior functionalities

........

Again, look on a real device and not the sim.  The smaller pixels on a device can make things look better

The start mem on fr245 is 79kB with the peak 86kB, still dangerous to exceed the limit 89kB. I am almost walking on the edge of a sharp knife.

Awesome, it looks not that in-acceptable on a real device. LOL

As usually, you have to wait for final release.

But you can make prg and put it into watch manually.

Yes. I have sideloaded it on my watch. The edge of fonts is not smooth but acceptable considering to runnable
