Of onSelect, onNextPage, onPreviousPage and onMenu functions that should be called when the corresponding button is pressed, only the onSelect is being called

Hi, a user with a Forerunner 945 and another one with a MARQ Expedition device has said that the Prev and Next buttons not being sent to the widget anymore (they cycle between the widgets). I sent them a debug version and sure enough, onPreviousPage and onNextPage are not being hit. I can't duplicate it in the Simulator as it works fine there. Are there some reasons why it would behave that way now? The view delegate is extending the BehaviorDelegate class. I have :

onHold,

onTap,

onSwipe,

onSelect,

onNextPage,

onPreviousPage,

onMenu,

onBack

defined in that delegate class.

With the 945, you can turn glances on or off, If glances are on, when you go full screen, you can use up/down, If they are off your top level view will not see up/down as those are used to move through…

With the 945, you can turn glances on or off, If glances are on, when you go full screen, you can use up/down, If they are off your top level view will not see up/down as those are used to move through the widget loop. You can push a second view and catch them in that delegate.

In your code you can see if you were started from a glance or not with

System.getDeviceSettings().isGlanceModeEnabled

Thanks! That's exactly it. I tried in the Simulator with "Start in normal mode" and sure enough, when I pressed Up or Down, the widget exited. I'll add your suggestion of a second view to launch the main one if not launched from the Glance view.

Adding a second view adds it's own wrinkle, as the second view must also be popped and can't exit the widget directly.

Thanks, I'll keep that in mind
