How to switch between hollow/filled fonts ?

Hello,
I've used my forerunner 955's included fonts with success, both fixed and scalables, but I can't see how to render text using hollow characters, with transparent filling and only the external stroke coloured, as shown on my factory built watch faces.

Is Garmin using another font for that purpose ? If so, why is it not available as are the other fonts ?

Thanks for your help.

Nicolas.

Native watch faces aren't written using CIQ and can do things you can't do in CIQ. In the case of hollow digits, you can make your own custom font. For tips on that, see https://developer.garmin…

By the way, with scalable fonts, understand they aren't available on all devices and the same fonts aren't on all devices with scalable fonts
