Not a dummy! There's so much stuff in the menu that even after two years with Fenix's I'm still learning stuff on it as well :)

Calibrate not during activity is only a one time daily calibration where you must be connected to your phone through Bluetooth and it calibrates your watch using DEM based on the phones location during your sleep window. This doesn't update your watch face when not in an activity. You need to contact the watch face developer or use a stock watch face.
