Battery Icon where there should not be there

Hi all,

I just created my first Watch Face, but I ran into a strange issue.

When placing a round battery progress bar WITHOUT icon, the preview is all good. But when loading onto the watch, suddenly the Battery icon appears with an underlying text.

Any suggestions on how to fix this?

following…I have the same problem. The Battery Icon keeps popping up on the watch even if I hid/delete it in WFS.

You may click the “x” on the top right corner of the range value choices that you want to remove. It’s not a fixed choice for the application to run it by the way you want it to be seen.

Not following correctly…see @TheLuxuryModifier reply. Mouse over each selection then “x”

Exact same problem and I’m starting to get pretty frustrated. Inside of WFS there is no battery icon and everything works perfectly. As soon as I send it to my watch the icon appears and becomes clickable, bringing me to the battery settings. changing the complication type from editable to fixed didn’t help. I’ve set the range value to progress bar (no icon no title no text) I don’t know what to do here.

WFS complication layout automatically selected as per the complication provider. So if you want to remove the icon, please delete the icon related layout from the layout list. Please check this blog for more details: Things to Consider when Designing Complication Layouts | Samsung Developer

I was just just about to look for an older post I saw about the same issue. I haven’t been putting complications on yet. Waiting until I have seen the many kinks and quirks but it does seem that when making your own face, then removing all of the complication options you will never use, and ensuring you edit the face options on the watch to the correct one for your current mood is the way to go.

This Seems to be quite the Favourite Question on this Forum at he moment I hope they change it so selecting the Comp style makes it exclusive .

I’m not sure that would meet the intention. For example, I’ve developed a face in which each SHORT_TEXT variant is displayed differently: the size of the elements, and the spacing between the elements, adapts to the combination of elements that happen to be provided by the specific complication that the user selects.

I make extensive use of this, which can provide almost every different combination of elements for each complication type (except the new ones). It’s a shame Google doesn’t make it available on Play Store. I wonder if I could publish a build of it for public testing…

You can post the WFS file here . You just have to ZIP it . I just add .ZIP to the whole file name after the .wfs . It then posts as a fake ZIP and you just delete the .ZIP bit and it opens on WFS . So try posting you file here and we can look at it for you . I am sure each comp layer will present all the options . What I am saying is once one of the templates are selected the others that are not going to be used could be greyed out . Another Comp would have all the templates available .

You’ve explained this in a way that made the previous replies finally make sense. Why is the x so tiny? Why is it grey on grey? Thank you for your patient response and for the link.
