Watchfaces from zlelik (Glasnost - Made in USSR, Euro Watch, USA Watch and etc)

    Allowing 12/24 hr display is less than 10 lines of code, but I'm thinking the author is always 24hr!


    I did not sleep until 2AM (02:00 in 24hours) and did it. It took 29 lines of code for me somehow :)
    Tell me please, do you really need a text AM/PM or people always knows what is it now AM/PM?

    P.S. I get used to 24 hours format...
  • am/pm is a good way to show 12/24 hr. and it's easy to get,

    One line of code:

    var AMPM = (today.hour>11) ? "pm" : "am";
  • Thank you for your question. Could you please explain, what do you mean as outline the numbers here? If I just make background white, when white stripes inside the numbers will merge with background. and what watch do you have? Fenix3 or something else?


    Wow... sorry for the delayed response. I did not see your response, sorry. I am using a Fenix 3.

    By "outline the numbers" I am referring to placing a boarder around the numbers themselves. I have not really seen anyone do this on Garmin Connect. The best example I could give is for the Garmin made ChartPlotter watch face: https://apps.garmin.com/en-US/apps/f8eb6203-b8ef-4e34-8944-18dad6094e8c. If you notice, even though it has a white background it also has a white border around the time. You can see this with the break in the contour lines and also where the time meets the orange terrain.

    I was wondering if different colored borders could be used. The dark background like you currently have it would be much easier to read if the "stars" area was outlined in white so the blue does not directly contact the black border.

    Does that make sense? Thanks again for answering and sorry for my delayed response.

    Now I understand. Thank you for clarification. It will be useful definitely, but I am afraid it is difficult to implement with Connect IQ. In your example they most probably just print one text above another, but in my case I print transparent text, to make letters looks like flag. If I will try to print another text with different color, flag will not be visible. Anyway I will try to see what can I do. Maybe there is another way in Connect IQ how to do it.

    Military Watch Faces?

    Would you have any interest in creating watch faces with military emblems? For instance an analog watch with the USMC emblem as the background?

    Thanks!

    Tried to load the USA Watch Digital on my Vivoactive HR but it displays the default Garmin digital watch face instead.
