• Too much copying from other developers:

    I had an issue before that one developer literally copied the whole layout of the one watchface that I created.

    Now I encountered another one but with the description, it is fine to copy but please rephrase the sentences.

    GearMin 2.0 and Blend have this…

  • RE: "Error: Array Out Of Bounds Error. Details: failed inside handle_image_callback" directly after makeImageRequest

    Hi Jim, thank you for your reply.

    I used pngs and jpegs. With some it didn't work, with some it did. I now tried a bitmap too, that did work - well at least the download. But all images that can be downloaded (in sync mode) are only drawn partially on…

  • RE: Watchface: BufferedBitmap vs. Clipping

    So really the buffered bitmap is an alternative to drawing the hour & minute hands (every second), and then in addition you always draw the second hand.

    The buffered bitmap will perform as one draw, whereas drawing the hour hand + minute hand + anything…

  • RE: Memory usage

    And when it comes to makeWebRequests(), the data is received in JSON format, and it needs to be converted to a dictionary, which can really increase the size depending on the complexity (consider at least double while the conversion is taking…
  • RE: Is it possible to get average execution time each time onPartialUpdate() is called?

    Thanks for that info.  How practical would it be to provide that info either as a call to powerinfo or as an added field in the sim diagnostics?  I appreciate that there is a level of complexity in the behind-the-scenes calculations but it seems to me that…

  • RE: not overloaded onSettingsChanged() bug with IOS ?

    The ERA tool say it's on the last line...

    Sure I believe you, but it's the most likely answer, and it can't hurt to at least try to revert that change.

    Believe me, I'm all about saving memory. If you want to save memory…

    Hi,

    Is it only simulator? Or also real device?

    I have a widget with glance view. Widget is periodically calling a background job to grab data. Once for couple of hours.

    As we know - glance view has very limited memory (~28kB)

    When having glance view active…

  • RE: New errors sending settings to F5X+ also crashing simulator

    I think the "failed loading app" messages are related to having a background process, but I thought that was fixed in 3.0.3.

    What's involved is the onAppInstall() and onAppUpdate() now available in AppBase.

    To get rid of them, in your AppBase…

    Seems like some sections and downloads are not available the the Garmin Developer SDK area. For example I cannot download the SDK for windows. I cannot go to the "User Interface" section of the "Programmers Guide", some parts work other don't. I receive…

    I want to create an activity app, but there are not many videos or tutorials about the whole process of the coding, I wanted to ask you if someone knows a link to download a template code like one of the internal activity apps from garmin that I could…
