GW3 and design studio missing functions

Why does Design studio not show all the available sensors of the watch?
Id like to design something with an altimeter and do not see one listed?

Hi, sorry to disappoint you, but the set of supported features of the GWD/GWS programs is limited. They were made to provide the most common functions for designers as easy tool for assembling their design creations and quickly fill the back then not so full store.

You need to program this in using Tizen Studio there may even be an example of this included with Tizen Studio.

Why on earth would you provide a tool to design watch faces but leave out the sensors already included on the watch, this makes no sense.

Galaxy Watch Studio was created for Watch Face Designers with no programming knowledge. It has access to Samsung Health Data. If you want direct access to the Tizen OS sensors you need to use Tizen Studio which is a Developer’s tool.
