Change icons for hourly weather forecast

I made two different icon packs for this watch face and the current weather works fine when inserted into the timeline.
However, it doesn’t work well when it’s in the hourly weather forecast. The icons change style, but the weather forecast doesn’t work.

I’m using (forecastHours(1,"COND")) in the opacity on the timeline image.

Try without the timeline.

Create bitmap fonts (with weather pictures) and just enter formula into the Text Field.
Works fine for me.

Thanks for the reply, I inserted the tag in the opacity of each icon that I inserted as an image and so it is possible to have more than one type of weather icon.

Hello, i got today 2 feedbacks that Hourly forecast does not update ( or does not change from Celsius to Fahrenheit unit however data in daily forecast change properly, Just hourly forecast not.
formula: forecastHours(1,“COND”))° put in text field

from how you wrote the post it seems that the formula is missing a parenthesis forecastHours(1,“COND”))° you should try (forecastHours(1,“COND”))° surely the other users will be able to help you better

Formula for hourly temperature is

(forecastHours(1,“TEM”))°

(forecastHours(1,“COND”)) does not return temperature, it returns weather condition as result:

  • 0: UNKNOWN_VALUE
  • 1: CLEAR
  • 2: CLOUDY
  • 3: FOG
  • 4: HEAVY_RAIN
  • 5: HEAVY_SNOW
  • 6: RAIN
  • 7: SNOW
  • 8: SUNNY
  • 9: THUNDERSTORM
  • 10: SLEET
  • 11: LIGHT_SNOW
  • 12: LIGHT_RAIN
  • 13: MIST
  • 14: PARTLY_CLOUDY
  • 15: WINDY

So, the result on your image says:

“it’s clear sky” outside ° (1=clear sky)

Hi,
(forecastHours(1, “TEM”))°
ForecastHours did not change the value when I change to F in WFS. Should I manually add formula to convert it to F value?

Make sure the Weather app on your watch is getting up to date Data . I have a samsung watch and phone . I check the weather app on the phone and it updates on my watch .

@Yuan25 ,
The run tab on WFS is meant to simulate how it would look on a watch. Anything you change there will not have an effect on your watchface. If you want to change temperature unit, you can do that from the weather app on your phone.

Doesn’t change in WFS preview but, as others told me, does work/change on the watch.
It’s a small bug in the WFS.
