  • RE: Questions about fonts

    3) @jim_m_58 BmFont does use 2 bit of the 8 bits per pixel (font smoothing) - fonts which have only black and white pixels aren't looking nice. I don't think my editor is doing anything odd - anyhow it just creates png and fnt files which are linked together…

    If you try to use 7.2.1 you get this message:

    Maybe instead of "Remember" I should've written something like: "[don't] prompt for device".

    If that checkbox is at the top of the device list, then how do you change it once you set it to not prompt for device?

    You want a press of the Menu key/shortcut to open *another* menu (or take some other kind of action) while you're already in a menu?

    Honestly this seems super unintuitive and it seems that Garmin agrees, since they haven't allowed you to implement…

    Any idea how to get the tide data from the tide app

    Like jim_m_58 said, this isn't available from CIQ.

    I guess you would have to do what tide apps on the CIQ store do (included the Garmin Tides app): download local tide tables from the…

    Thanks for elaborating, it's not been super clear to me but at least I interpreted the docs just like your description.

    My use case is that I don't need any app functionality but would rather build it as a widget. Sadly when I did the original…

    Yeah for example, a support article for Stryd Zones (a data field which writes many FIT fields) suggests removing all other CIQ data fields from an activity that uses Stryd Zones (without elaborating).

    It's kind of a bad look for Garmin imo, as it suggests…

    When you say compiled with “API 3.2 “and “API 4.0” do you mean “SDK 3.2” and “SDK 4.0”?

    As a rule you can (and should) use the latest SDK to compile your apps. (This will work with both new and old devices…
