HMs DIY #1-6

Hi

Thank you very much, really cool layout !!

Didn't think myself that this is possible with only 5 types of graphic elements.

Thanks for your testing and fast responses.

Unless there is a major bug I will release a new version in a few days with most of the points from my todo list.

If there are any more wishes for values or features please post it here.

regards

Erich

Hahaha! You'll regret saying that because of all the wishes you will get!

Hi Erich

What I miss the most is

• Values for last lap
• Pacer functionality (+/- target pace set in app with gained/lost time due to off pace)
• Distance left to some set distance (in app - what the original DIY did with multiple distances was really nice) and expected time to the target distance set in app.
• A "graph" field  would also be nice (HR/pace/etc)

Hi

I think distance left is already available, it should be "distance to destination" and "distance to next point", including time to XX and ETA.

I had today with my Forerunner 945 extreme battery consumption - 8-12% per hour (8% by running with 1 variable with dynamic coloring and 12% by cycling with 2 variables with dynamic coloring), normally was 4-5% per hour. Had someone that experience? What can be a reason for this? Thanks.

Hi Thanks for offering some solutions. I hadn't spotted the 2-stroke, like you suggested it was originally cloned from a 2-stroke line, but once it was changed to a filled rectangle the stroke couldn't be changed. 

I recreated the rectangle with 1-stroke but the issue still occurs. Also as you alluded to, the element is disappearing not simply turning black as the red highlight disappears when I increase the size of the rectangle

Here is a link to the XML if you have time to check it out: layout_Edge1030.xml It's still work in progress as a couple of the timer functions haven't been released as yet, so I was just testing the layout for when they are

Note for hundsmiachn. I'm not sure if the Left/Right alignment is working correctly. I originally added a left aligned % text element to a right aligned battery percentage in my layout above and positioned it as can be seen in my layout. However when it was loaded on to the edge the % symbol was positioned further left and was on top of the battery percentage value.

Also, not a bug, more cosmetic with the 'Name of next point'. If there isn't a course loaded or the loaded course doesn't contain any course points the field displays 0.0. Maybe at some point in a future release if there is no data for that field it could be made to be blank 

I‘m out and will check your XML on Sunday afternoon!

Hi

I tried you layout and couldn't reproduce your problem. But I changed the behaviour of the clipping area, I hope this fixed the problem. I will release a new version later today.

Hi

I have to admit, I did not test the battery consumption with my datafield. Is it possible that you do 2 identical runs, one with my datafield and one with a standard one, so we can narrow down the problem (with same devices attached and same gps settings) ?

thanks

regards

Erich

New version 1.1.7 is out!
