Open source watch face needs help with a simple feature (settings page)

hi,

unless I did not see it, but in your

class DextrackApp extends Application.AppBase { }

you di not put :

public function getSettingsView() as Array<Views or InputDelegates>? {
return [new $.AnalogSettingsView(), new $.AnalogSettingsDelegate()] as Array<Views or InputDelegates>;
}

this code is from the Analog Sample, adapt it to your project

Isn't that for in-app settings? I'm looking to enable settings in Connect IQ app.

Crystal also doesn't have a `getSettingsView`: https://github.com/warmsound/crystal-face/blob/master/source/CrystalApp.mc but it has settings working in Connect IQ and simulator.

In VS Code, do "Monkey C: New project" and select watch face/simple with settings.  That will give you a very simple example of app settings.  While you can test it in the sim, you can't test it on a sideload, as the app needs to be installed from the store to use app settings.  You can mark it as a beta so only you can install it.

I tried that, but no luck.. I copied the these files from "simple with settings" project: resrouces/string/strings.xml, resources/settings (the directory).

I confirmed that "simple with settings" has a working settings page in the simulator, but after copying these files (and confirming that a settings.json file generated), my watch face doesn't..

I think it's not about adding more files or lines, but maybe I need to remove something from my watch face that somehow prevents settings from working?

Are you using onSettingsChanged in the AppBase for your WF?  That will tell you if settings changed and you need to reload them.  In the sim, do the settings take effect if you fun your app again?

You are right Jim, there is no onSettingsChanged on his AppBase. 

Just added `onSettingsChanged` to my `AppBase` class -- still no settings in File > Edit Persistent Storage > Edit Properties Data.

Do you think some of the properties I'm using in the app (not declared in properties.xml) could be causing this?

I've just had another look at your github, there is no settings.xml and properties.xml in your project, that is probably why...

as Jim said, take a look at a new project structur with settings.

I'm not committing every change to the repo, only the ones that work.

As I said above, I copied those files from the "simple settings" project. Please read my messages above.

yes and please check your project
