Bug: WatchUi.Picker now uses white as the background color and it can't be changed (SIM only)

Until sdk-8.2.3 the background color used by WatchUi.Picker was black by default (at least on the devices I tested) and could be changed. Since sdk-8.3.0 it is white, and code to change it in onUpdate() doesn't have any effect anymore. A picker implementation which uses white text, now draws white text on white background.

The Picker sample that comes with the SDK demonstrates the problem.

The issue seems to only affect the simulator; on my fr955, the background is still black by default and can be changed.

    The "devices I tested" comment was meant as a qualifier for the statement that the background used to be black by default, which is actually an assumption - I just never saw any other color. I have a physical fr955 and on that it still works as it used to. In the simulator for the fr955 however, the background is also white now.
    To reproduce the issue, run the Picker sample from the SDK in the simulator for the fenix5 for example.

  • You expect us to guess what "devices you tested"? The only device you mention is the one that works.
