  • RE: Visual Studio Code: Simulator Retains Old Bitmap Fonts

    gekaram

    Yes! There is definitely some caching going on! But where is it saving the cache to, the bin folder? Isn't that the most weird behavior? I try switching to a different target with the same resolution size (=same source folder), and sure enough, the compiler…

  • RE: BUG - Scalable fonts incorrect size on F265/F265s/F965/Venu3/Venu3s

    It looks like the bigger size font watches are returning a font that is twice the size requested (at least on the sim.  the factor appears different on the actual devices).

    I'm unwilling to compensate for this bug because if/when Garmin fixes this, my…

  • RE: How do I work out what to redraw in onUpdate()?

    OK. Thanks for following up. So it seems that the way that onUpdate() currently works makes it difficult to implement a watch face that uses no extraneous battery at all. The Garmin folks already know this, and aren't going to change anything.

    That…

    Have you been able to connect to an Android phone? Which Android API does your phone have? Which model? With Jim's app, I am able to get advertisements from an Android phone but not to connect because my phone has a resolvable private address... I tried…

  • RE: Memory management for complex Data Fields

    1. I don't use layouts

    2. I optimize many many places in my code (change a little bit, and compare the code, data size, take a note and keep the version that uses less memory)

    3. I also use Prettier Monkey C to optimize even more

    4. I only do bugfixes…

    Jim, FlowState is correct in this based on my reading of the 4.2 SDK docs.

    System 4 = 3.2.x & 4.0.x

    System 5 = 3.3.x & 4.1.x

    System 6 = 3.4.x & 4.2.x

    Anything feature that came in 3.3.6 is still system 5 but will only be on a device once the…

    Okay, thanks. I am indeed setting the colors before dc.clear(). 

    Could you elaborate on why you shouldn't update only part of the screen in onUpdate()? I got this idea from this Garmin blog post (see towards the end), so it seems like doing this is…

    Hmmm, sounds good but need to dive into it some more because i still have no understanding how it actually works :p

    Now, when trying to run a barrel projectr in the emulator on a non barrel device, i simply get an error. But guess that's a matter of setting…

    R U sure? This makes no sense, and when I saw similar strange things it turned out that I did have other changes as well or that for some reason the state of my app was different.

    BTW you could use at least the 26 English letter * 2 (small and capital…

    I'm not 100% sure, because I don't use jsons, but with strings.xml this works:

    There is a bug in simulator and Garmin Express that you can't choose the default language. The workaround i found is to add "eng" as a language in the manifest AND…
