HR zone colors on fr55

flocsy🤠 over 2 years ago

What colors (Graphics.COLOR_* or hex) does the fr55 use for the HR zones?

I found this marketing image from Garmin which seems to be fake, 'cause according to all the docs it doesn't have gray:

The fr45. fr55 and swim2 only have 8 colors.

if you use COLOR_LT_GRAY it shows in the sim as white. COLOR_DK_GRAY as black (colors get maped down to 8)

On the instinct2/2s/crossover and the edge 130, there are only 2 colors so even a bit more interesting!

What some do on things like the I2 for "gray" is overlap bitmaps, to "look" gray.

Instead of having the pixels

That's a good idea, but does the HR zone really look like on the picture (if yes, then now I know how to make gray) or does the real fr55 use different colors? Or it doesn't even have such widget or datafield that displays the zones with colors?
