Watchface: M2

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.

  • Hello , I found a strange problem with the PC emulator: Thursdays are shown as "THURS" there, but still displayed "THU" on the screen of my Fenix 6X.

    Is this a known issue, could I fix this on my side, please?

    Thanks!

  • Unfortunately yes it's a known issue! Using the simulator you are now entering the realms of Garmin CIQ development ... and this is a bug in the simulator on the Garmin side. So now you know what developers have to put up with Slight smile

    It's not something I or you can fix unfortunately ...

    Bit of a pain if you are trying to make an alignment. You could switch it to display month instead of day temporarily (and then switch it back again).

    Here is an official bug report for it: https://forums.garmin.com/developer/connect-iq/i/bug-reports/simulator-uses-thurs-for-thursday-in-3-0-10 - but it's from April 2019 ... over a year ago

    I just voted it up!

  • , thank you for the reply and for the hint!

    I also upvoted this ticket

  • "The Dark SideSmiling imp watchface, or "Red Sith

    Not only because of cookies :), but also to match the new bracelet.

    If everything is fine, the icons are, no doubts, red!

    In case of issues - low battery, unread messages (like in the image above), unset alarm, high heart rate or time-to-sleep ;) they change to the wrong jedi guardian blue color Stuck out tongue

    P.S. I'll try to match the red colors but seems that the palette of Fenix is a bit limited...

  • Wow, that bracelet is awesome Slight smile
