Because I want to keep this datafield and the app free for use I would be very grateful about a small donation to PayPal

    Bonjour,

    Après avoir lancé le logiciel, je n'ai pas accès au bas de la fenêtre. Impossible de sauvegarder par exemple.

  • I created a layout for a fullsize datafield with 100 elements. When I press "Copy to clipboard" the copied string has a length of 5.035 characters/bytes. When I copy this string into the "layout string" field in Garmin Express App (Windows) or into the correspondig data field in the ConnectIQ App (iOS), only 5.001 characters/bytes are inserted. Is this a limitation of Garmin? Is there any workaround to bring larger config strings into configuration?

  • Apparently the input string length is limited to 5000 characters. It should not be that difficult to reduce your layout a little.

    Side effect: a very large layout might leed to a slow down of display update. You can check, if your timer counts up continuously or skips some seconds…
