Menu 2 menu item in-focus colour?

Thanks for the context!

Yeah, as flocsy and others have mentioned, it sure would be nice if Connect IQ could tell us what the background colour is supposed to be, in certain situations. (Although in some cases it wouldn't help, if the background colour is dynamic yet the feature in question is static - e.g. app launcher icon.)

I think it's pretty interesting that Garmin clearly wants us to make apps which follow the native look and feel of devices, but they sure don't make it easy. (See my example above about ALL CAPS vs Title Case for data fields).

I just think CIQ is kind of an afterthought for Garmin as a whole. The only crucial apps seem to be:

- certain supplemental Garmin apps

- certain partner apps (Strava Relative Effort?)

- paid Garmin watchfaces

- Spotify, YouTube Music and other big-name music providers

It probably also helps that monetization is limited to newer devices, so anyone who devs paid apps doesn't have to worry about a bunch of legacy issues like Menu2 having a white background on some devices.

Ofc, going beyond monetization, CIQ as a whole has abandoned older CIQ 3 devices, in the sense that they no longer receive CIQ feature updates. This is after a few years where CIQ would receive new features for both CIQ 3 and CIQ 4 devices (which is the reason for the "System Level" versioning scheme).

And I noticed YouTube Music (initially released more recently than Spotify) doesn't support certain older devices which are supported by Spotify.

Some of the headaches that CIQ devs encounter can probably be avoided by simply targetting the latest and greatest devices. (Like that bug with Menu - not Menu2 - on certain old devices such as Fenix 5 and FR935, where the menu title says "English" instead of the string that you actually set.)
