Device Simulator Bug with vivoactive 3

Mac OS X, Connect IQ Device Simulator 2.3.1:

When I simulate vivoactive 3 and select "Data Fields" --> "Layout" --> "3 Fields B" or "4 Fields" I get big blue areas inside vivoactive 3 preview.
See attached images.

I don't think this is a bug. When you select those layouts, the top and bottom fields are smaller, and can only be assigned to a very limited subset of metrics (like distance, time and HR), which doesn't include CIQ data fields. I hope this won't be a trend for Garmin watches.

This is working as designed. Those smaller field areas cannot be configured to display Connect IQ fields on the device.

ok, thanks.
Since vivoactive 3 has 240x240pixels, I thought it had 3Fields B and 4 Fields similar to Fenix 5.
Can you please update "UXGuide" with vivoactive 3 information?

Markus,

We're actually working on that right now. Sorry about the missed hand-off on the info.

Thanks,
