I have Venu 2, and am wondering if anyone else can see HR Line chart, if you set it for the bottom chart? It just shows a blank chart for me. If I choose e.g. Pressure line chart, it shows.

In Garmin Conenct Mobile (Android) you can select the apps that may send the messages to the watch.

It shows CIQ 3.2.0 but I don't think that I can see anything related to the forecast point in time anyway. How is the setting called and where should I find it? Near "Weather Provider Preference" and "Weather Update Frequency"?

peterdedecker over 4 years ago in reply to Forerunner 945

it's an option in the data fields and in the option "right chart"

Forerunner 945 over 4 years ago in reply to peterdedecker

I'm not quite sure how I can access the options of the data fields but I checked the option "Right Chart" of the watchface settings.

I see ["Empty", "Weather + City", "Weather + Chill", "Weather + Forecast Today", "Weather + Wind", "Weather + Humidity", "Weather + Time last update", "Move Circles"]

So nothing regarding tomorrow or anything that sounds like something in the future (except the word "Forecast"). And when I chose "Weather + Forecast Today" I'm not quite sure what I'm seeing. Is it now? In one hour? Something else? I'm simply seeing temperature, clouds and probably wind speed but I don't know for which point in time.

peterdedecker over 4 years ago in reply to Forerunner 945

that are indeed the options that are available for the right chart, the forecast today shows min-max predicted values for today

The fields (eg field left bottom) have in addition also the option to show min-max for tomorrow and min-max for day after tomorrow.

Forerunner 945 over 4 years ago in reply to peterdedecker

Okay, I think I get it.

So I switched to the forecast for today, but it shows a single temperature (seven degrees) and on top of that "broken clouds".

Below of that a cloud with "3-7". Does that mean that "3-7" are min/max temperature for today and "broken clouds" and the seven degrees are the weather hindsight (for instance the weather from 15 minutes ago or even longer if a sync wasn't possible)?

peterdedecker over 4 years ago in reply to Forerunner 945

Indeed.

Prediction of 3 - 7 today. Next to the 3-7 there's also a weather icon which shows the icon for cloudy, sunny etc...

Forerunner 945 over 4 years ago in reply to peterdedecker

Thank you so much for your patience, your explanations and of course your work.

Is there any way to get notified if you decided to make an alternative to the weather hindsights to switch to a forecast (so the cloud and the big temperature number in most of the views)?
Because the Connect IQ app might update the watchface and I obviously won't be notified about particular phases in the CHANGELOG.

Also, apart from the weather hindsight issue, I have a feature idea: Maybe it would be nice to have a batttery state icon for the phone as well (instead the bluetooth icon). It's only a beauty feature, though. ;)

peterdedecker over 4 years ago in reply to Forerunner 945

I don't think there's a way to get notified about store updates.

The phone battery info is not available to the connect iq api.

Forerunner 945 over 4 years ago in reply to peterdedecker

Hm, okay. So would it be possible, that you'd ping me here in the forum in this case?

peterdedecker over 4 years ago in reply to Forerunner 945

if I remember :)
