Watchface: M2

markdotai
over 4 years ago

This is the support thread for the M2 watchface:

 has created a Facebook group for designs here: https://www.facebook.com/groups/423319952037948

And this PDF files contains a quick visual index to the designs posted in this thread: >>>    ForumProfiles1.pdf    <<<

To create your own design or modify one, install & use the M2 Designer app on your watch. These are the steps you would go through:

  • Optionally paste a text code into the "Profile Text" setting of M2 Designer & save the settings, or load one of your previously saved designs (either via the settings or the in-app menu).
  • Run the M2 Designer app (found underneath your activities list) and create your design.
  • Once you've finished, open the Garmin settings for M2 Designer.
  • The text code in "Profile Text" will now represent whatever your design looks like, so copy the text code from "Profile Text" - and be careful to select the whole text.
  • Close the settings for M2 Designer.
  • Open the Garmin settings for M2 (watchface) instead.
  • Delete any text that was already in "Profile Text" - this step helps to avoid potential problems
  • Paste the text code into "Profile Text".
  • Save the settings.
  • Now when you view the M2 watchface it will show your changes.

A guide for accessing the Garmin settings is here: https://forums.garmin.com/developer/connect-iq/w/wiki/14/changing-your-app-settings-in-garmin-express-gcm-ciq-mobile-store.

    Thanks for the extra info - Garmin Connect Mobile is normally pretty good, whereas I keep hearing of different problems with the CIQ Store App.

    Again that sounds like the data in the "app storage" file has been lost/deleted (which should never happen …) The reason one profile would still have some information is that the currently active profile also has its data duplicated in the app settings (so it can be displayed when you open the settings in GCM) - so we know the settings data is not disappearing, only the storage data.

    If it continues to happen I can try splitting some of the data saved to the storage file into 2 separate chunks (the profiles are stored individually already, just all the activation times are combined together with the GPS location). At least that way you would probably only lose the GPS location (which should still never occur …)

    So if it keeps happening, let me know please, thanks! Slight smile

    Hi markdotai,

    An update in relation to the issue:

    Over the last three days my Vivoactive 4 has updated itself to a new Bluetooth version and later on to SW 4.70. I had to enter the data for the second profile again after each update, however, since I last entered the data it seems like it's working as intended and keeps the profile data. It also switches the profiles at the correct times and the sunset/sunrise times also update automatically.

    At this stage it looks like the Bluetooth and SW updates rectified the issue. I will keep you updated if I notice the issue reappearing.

    My last configuratin. From top letf: steps, HR, calories, date, time, sunrise, battery, sunset. Hope you like it. I couldnt upload photo. It someone can upload, I would be grateful. Thanks to the developer for this great wf.

    Cool, thanks Slight smile Here's a pic from the simulator (doesn't look as good as on a watch, but easier for me to capture ...)

    Hi there, have you got a solution to translate battery percentage to days?

    Would be interested! Cheers!

  • over 4 years ago in reply to Rob

    Hi

    Battery percentage remaining in days is still on my "to do" list sorry! (For several months now …)

    I'll see what I can do Slight smile But worried about running out of memory in the app now, as it is getting tight. And new code features get expensive fast.

    My first attempt using the M2 Designer app on my tactix Delta. White triangle (nxt to 5 position) is the seconds hand.

    Great app to personalise your watch by designing your own watch face........... great job Mark.
