Issue resolved

Epix Gen 2 using resources for 280x280 instead of 416x416

I use custom fonts for my watch face, where different size fonts are used for different screen sizes. The fonts are assigned with resource folders with my own names, e.g., resources-fonts_280 and resources-fonts_416. 

The epix 2 is using resources for 280x280 instead of 416x416. I confirmed this in the simulator by commenting out lines in the fonts.xml file in resources-fonts_280 and looking for errors. I also confirmed it by reassigning 280x280 devices to use resources_fonts-416.

The epix 2 uses the 280 fonts with these lines (416 resources are ignored):
round-280x280.resourcePath = $(round-280x280.resourcePath);resources-fonts_280
round-416x416.resourcePath = $(round-416x416.resourcePath);resources-fonts_416
It uses the 416 fonts with this:
round-280x280.resourcePath = $(round-280x280.resourcePath);resources-fonts_416
round-416x416.resourcePath = $(round-416x416.resourcePath);resources-fonts_416

Other 416x416 devices such as the Venu 2 work fine, they use the 416 resources in both of the above scenarios.

The same issue occurs when using appropriately named resource folders without statements in the jungle file. The epix 2 uses resources stored in resources-round-280x280, not resources-round-416x416.

At first I thought this was an issue only in the simulator. But it doesn't seem that way. A user posted a review saying "the data is displayed too small on the Epix 2". I'm not able to follow up with them because it's a review and they might not see my reply. I also do not have an actual epix 2 device to test it on, so I don't know for certain if it's a bug there too or not. But it sounds like it probably is. They left 4 stars instead of 5 because of this issue :/

Here are my specs:

VS Code 1.66.2

  • yes, I tried sending a .zip file containing the project folder and .iq file (12.2 MB), then .iq by itself (11.8 MB), then .zip with the project folder only (514 KB). Each time, I got the same auto reply error message:

    “Message too large Your message couldn't be delivered to [email protected] because it exceeds the size limit. Try reducing the message size and resending.

    The response from the remote server was:
