VA4 firmware 5.0 always clears the goalView dc every second

VA4 firmware 5.0 always clears the goalView dc every second.

The dc is always cleared every second during the display of the goalView.

My watch face implements a goalView but only renders the content once at the beginning and then draw over to get an animation like behaviour.

-> https://apps.garmin.com/en-US/apps/fc3f9b9f-add6-46cb-8e0b-9a2172a04c31

With the new firmware the goalView is cleared each second and draws only the new content. This leads to false rendering of my goalView and flickering of the complete VA4 display.

Please fix, thanks.

To reproduce this bug set the floors goal to the next number and go for a small climb. ;-)

Other watches are fine e.g. F5X, F6X

    There are at least 2 things to check...

    1. The the screen gets black with each onUpdate check the first clip the arc is drawn every onUpdate but still flickers

    2. why is the SDK behaviour on each device different? I don't want to spend my time to develop the code for each device. (the different screen sizes are already enough)

    I'm currently thinking about to remove the support for some devices (e.g. the VA3 & 4) due to annoying system errors and strange user bug reports like above.
