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

A detailed description of how to use it can be found here:

Thanks very much to mcinner1 for putting so much time into this documentation!

  • Ok!

    Will try tomorrow (now it's near midnight here in Austria)

    Good night!

  • In Denmark, too :-)

    Goodnight.

  • Hi

    @: if you mean with elapsed time, the time since the activity has started, this is "timer time". I will rename it as I think too that it is a confusing name.

    Added current lap time to my list.

    Dynamically coloring fixed text is a little bit trickier, but will try to add it.

    Adding text to time fields already works, will try to extend it to all value fields.

    I added a clipping rectangle around every devices visible area, I will extend it by 2-3 pixels, I think this is the problem with the rectangle.

    regards

  • There is a new version 1.1.5 for the datafield!

    mcinner1 found a bug where the datafield crashed when using time to destination.

    Because of the memory optimizations in the last version I had to rework a part of the code and there I had a little typo which caused the crash. But should be fixed now!

    regards

  • After a little interlude I have now tested your layout on my Edge.
    However, I had to make some changes to your XML
    I couldn't load your layout originally. (Yellow Triangle of Death!)
    "Nr of values" was set to 2 for several text elements and unnecessarily for value elements.
    I don't know if this was the only fault.
    So the layout shown doesn't quite match yours.

    "Time to Dastination" is displayed correctly!
    By the formatting $M:$S however in minutes - 107:13.

  • Hi

    I have found a problem with the values for nextpoint and destination. I simply forgot to decrease by elapsed distance )-:

    Will be fixed in next version!

    As this isn't a blocker bug I will wait a while for the next release.

    EDIT: I dug a little into this problem and it seems that the SDK is providing wrong values for distancetoDestination and distanceToNextPoint on some devices.

    I dont know if the values should be decreased by the SDK or me, but from the name I would expect that the value is decreased automatically, also for next point because I dont know where the last point was, do I?

    I dont know what the values should be and how to calculate them.

    regards

    Erich

  • Due to the optimizations one more thing came up, performance issues. So I had to revert some of the changes to get rid of this issues -> thus I uploaded a new version 1.1.6

    Sorry for that many updates, but monkey C coding with this limited memory is a pain in the a...

  • I really appreciate all your work.

  • As Erich writes below I expect it's an unit issue.

  • Hi,
    first, many thanks for your development of a new diy. I'm using a FR935 and at the moment I'm on the datafield from easuvorov.
    I tried to test your new datafield. But where I can download the lastest version 1.1.6? In the Garmin store still 1.1.4 is linked.
    With 1.1.4 I have a misalignment in the editor. Please see following screenshot. Please check what's wrong.
    Thanks in advance.
