Development Tools

You'd like to do apps quick and easy?

Try Screeny for Windows!
All you need is a Java and a Connect IQ SDK installed on your PC and a developer key file.

Some initial hints:

  • F1 brings up a shortcut reference screen
  • After starting Screeny, press F5 and F6 to set the global options (a lot of things will be set automatically by activating "Scan Environment")
  • If you have written a source code project, copy it into the source file directory and compile it by using F5
  • Play around with options (F3) and the source code parameters (more information by using Shift+F1)

Have fun!

 

And here's another Tool for all Connect IQ developers:

Screeny Font Viewer and Editor

And some hints for you again...
 ...press 'F1' to view a simple help page. If you do changes (double click on character to view dialog), Ctrl+S will save the font file.

    Great update!

    + Advanced file handling (improved history function, editing the font characteristics like lineHeight and base, etc.)

    + more general functions (copy characters, show errors like to small advance value, show base line, etc.)

    + better editing functions (arc, pixel eraser, advanced preview options, etc.)

    If you are developing Garmin IQ apps using Windows, you'd have a look at the ScreenyFont program - I've made tons of symbols and characters using this program and see how much efficient this can be done compared to work with a paint program and the notepad.

    Here are few screenshots of my programs showing some fonts and multiple symbols - every single character of these programs has been created with the ScreenyFont tool:
