DrawText String Build Up

no

You need to draw each part by itself with a setColor() for each part.  you might find that getTextWidthInPixels useful to get the spacing.  I do something similar in some apps,  but for fonts, where I use a smaller font for seconds.

Thanks for your help.  I have taken a bit of a break from my watchface and am getting back into it.  Trying to optimize it and clean things up a bit.  The method you suggested is how I go about it.  I was hoping instead of building regions on the watch face and doing the math to place everything I could build a line up and then post it centered in the right up/down position and be done with it.  Could get more use out of the space on the watch that away and get rid of several calculations/variables to carry.  

If it's an area that doesn't change then you can use a buffered bitmap and calculate it only once, and then redraw the buffered bitmap.
