Data display issues (Watch face & sports data)

Victor 9 months ago

Hello everyone,
I'm on the latest version 11.89 for Garmin Fenix 8, configured with the French language. And I notice display issues (they were well managed and don't exist on Fenix 7/7X).
The data information is overflowing as you can see in these images (blue square and arrow)

It's a shame, there is even a watch face that is unusable...
Exemples :

- Date with three letters only: "OCT" for October, except for "AOUT" for August "JUIN" for June, ...

- The new "Portal" watch face is unusable if you put certain types of data, knowing that it is not possible to do like the Fenix 7X, to have 3 types of data at the bottom and top instead of the graphs, around the time

Thank you for listening, hoping that it will be corrected. Kind regards

Salut, est-ce que tu utilises la fonction Taille du Texte pour zoomer afin d'avoir des charactères plus larges ?

Hi, are you using Text Size zoom for larger/bigger characters ?

Das Vergrößern der Textgröße hat keinen Einfluss auf das Zifferblatt. Auch das deutsche Ziffernblatt ist unbrauchbar.

I guess your answer means that you tested with or without this function? And that it has no effect as you mention?

ich nehme an, deine Antwort bedeutet, dass du mit oder ohne diese Funktion getestet hast? Und dass sie keinen Effekt hat, wie du ihn erwähnst?

Ja, ich habe die Schrittweite geändert. Die Schriftgröße auf dem Zifferblatt hat sich nicht geändert.

merci, c'est utile pour essayer de comprendre d'où provient ce problème.

Salut, le réglage du zoom n'a aucun effet sur les écrans de données (sur les activités et les données de la watchface). A noter que si on peut le régler (de toute façon ce n'est pas le cas), l'écriture ne doit pas dépasser hors champ/cadre

Hi, the zoom setting has no effect on the data screens (on activities and watchface data). Note that if it can be adjusted (it is not the case), it should not go beyond the field/frame.

Yep. This is a basic thing. How could the engineers forget this? (while it works very well on other Fenix)
