maxlength problem with app settings!

Former Member over 9 years ago

my app IoTWidget uses a lot of app settings.

If one tries to save app settings using Garmin Express (via USB) Garmin Express shows an error.

(translated): "Could not save. IoTWidget has max length settings"

Saving the exact same settings using GarminConnectMobile (equal if I use Win10, iOS or Android - connected via BT) works properly!!

I tried to add maxLength="100" to the settingConfig tags. But this did not change anything.

Is there a bug in GarminExpress? Or what is the problem here?

I received another report similar to this earlier this week, and already have a ticket open for investigation. Out of curiosity, have you updated Garmin Express recently? In which version are you seeing this issue?

I'm using GarminExpress Version 5.5.0.0

But, I got a couple of complaints from users in the past regarding this issue. I could never reproduce this behaviour until yesterday.
Which means, I'm pretty sure, the problem did exist in previous versions too!

Thanks for the update--I agree it sounds like this has been an issue for a while. It's just not something a lot of people have encountered from what I can tell. Regardless, there's a bug in here somewhere. We'll get it fixed. :)
