Vivoactive6 simulator: menu key not working

In the simulator for the new Vivoactive6, the menu key (m) is not working.

Also the image only shows a black and white scheme of the watch, but maybe that's intended?

    > You're right - I got that mixed up. The indicator I mentioned actually corresponds to a single short press of the UP button, not the long press that triggers onMenu.

    Yeah this kinda highlights the fact that this stuff isn't intuitive for anyone, especially not the end user (who again, probably has no idea what long press of UP does)

    I hadn’t really thought about it before, but my app unintentionally reflects that. I use the onMenu input as a kind of debug view that displays version and status information. It’s not something users need to discover on their own - they’ll either find it in the troubleshooting guide or I’ll point them to it while helping resolve an issue.

    That’s why the visual indicator for onActionMenu on the Vivoactive 6 felt too intrusive for my use case. I am now using the onHold input for this view on the Vivoactive 6 (thanks again for your help with that in another thread).
