How to place 2 images and rotate them based on time? Windows, vs code, monkey.

Chris 11 months ago

I made faces for Wear OS that I'd like to remake for Garmin.

I don't use many features and the bulk of my designs either:

Rotate 2 images
Move 2 images
Show/hide or tint images

Would someone please show me some demo code for these?

I am using Monkey C in VS Code on Windows.

I believe I have the SDK and Monkey set up correctly as I was able to load some examples.

I'm not sure if I was having a bad day but I could not see how to do the above; rotate, move, show/hide ideas as Monkey C and the examples I saw were pretty confusing for day 1 using them.

On newer (CIQ 4+) watches, you can use affine transformations to rotate or move bitmaps:

The Affine Transform and other links I have followed do look interesting but I'm tripping over with snippets of code as I simply do not know how it all fits together.

Is there a way to get from the "Analog" sample that is included in all SDKs and using an image as a hand instead of drawing one?
