!!! IMPORTANT - PLEASE, RESTART YOUR WATCHES AFTER WATCHFACE UPDATE IF YOU HAVE SOME CONFIGURATION ISSUES !!!

Watch Face contains:
- Time and date

- maximum or sum or average kCals and km/mi (or steps)
- daily goal progress and step count
- custom fields
- status and notification icons
- inactivity indicator. Removing of inactivity levels is handled by the watch firmware, usually it takes about 3-4 minutes of walking.
- "goal reached" indicator in the week graph (small white triangle)

Supports 12/24 time format and km/mi.

Configuration
------------------------

ActiFace can be configured via Garmin Connect Mobile or Garmin Express.

Hi folks

Nice job:D

I have two things I would like to have on the watchface. Seconds and an icon to show me my alarm is enabled.

Thanks in advance.

Hi and thanks. In fact, seconds in custom watch faces don't make sense because watchface is normally refreshed once per minute. And alarm settings is not currently available for custom watchfaces.

And in which way are you trying to install watchfaces? Garmin Connect or Garmin Express?

I try to install these programs with Garmin Express. I got it a few weeks ago , has to install one but not for some time ... I tried resetting the watch , uninstall and then reinstall everything ... nothing

Hi Koulik,
Firstly thank's for an awesome watch display

I have just updated to your new version on my Vivoactive using software 2.80
And am Noticing that the days only number 5 Now instead of 7
and the graph alters shape between the lines as well...
presumably this is a bug..?
Also is it possible to make the green triangles slightly larger as they really aren't noticeable

Regards

Hi Steve,

thanks for the response. As I understand your graph now shows only last 5 days? Is it possible to make a photo for better analysis of your issue? Can you check your step history if it is available on Vivoactive? Are there also other days beyond the 5 days shown in the graph?

Concerning to goal triangles, it was a little purpose to make them subtle. But on the other side, I understand that it must be hard to notice them on the Vivoactive as it has dimmer screen then other Garmin devices with Chroma display. I'll try to make them bigger either for Vivoactive or for all devices. I need more feedbacks about this.

What about try to install older version of the Garmin Express? I noticed some strange issues with updating and installing of CIQ stuff with latest versions.. So maybe it can help. Otherwise you should contact Garmin support.

Hi,

it looks like your Vivoactive provides just these 4 days + today to the ActiFace. Can you find your steps history for all past 7 days on your Vivo? The ActiFace doesn't store any data, it only loads them from internal history. I hope that another day (column) will be added tomorrow and you'll see 5 days + today. Let me know if so, please. Anyway, it's strange that the ActiFace update cut your history.

Ah! Just installed a step app, and this is showing me just 4 goal days and 1 were I didn't meet my target
So it looks like your right and I will see another day (column) added tomorrow

Thanks for the help
Much appreciated...
