How can I rotate a circular image like a second in a minute IN SEEP SMOOTH WAY.
I need a formula maybe…
this is my example: trying to put one inside the other… one turns like (sec in min) and the smaller piece doesn’t turn properly because the speed is not accurate.

Thank you
We have problems with WFS here . The big cog and the small cog need to run at different speeds . I have not counted the teeth in the cogs but it is always best to divide the number of cogs into each other by an Even number . If you use the Default Rotating hands you can not change the timing correctly . Just a quick Formula gets near them near to meshing but you will see there are errors and glitching . This is a fault of WFS . Samsung / Google are trying to Dissuade us from doing this sort of thing as it is a power drain . This sort of stuff is easier on Facer . We have some smooth timers over there .
(([SEC_MSEC])*10)
Thank you Russellcresser.
I tried it… it’s glitchy… and choppy.
I seen it so smooth on the other face watches.
The amount of the grooves are half the amount of the big one.
Still it doesn’t work properly.
Thank you anyways.
Idk if someone else has a better ideas.!
Thnx again.
WFF/WFS only refreshes the display at 15 fps maximum (see here). If so, steps should be multiples of about 67 ms for smoothest movement.
We discussed this topic a bit when Ron Was Arround .

it didn’t work properly.
Well the zip file at the top already @ Russelcresser… try it out… and see if you can make it work.
the big circle has 60 grooves and the smaller circle has 30 grooves… half the amount of the big one.
see if u can make it work…pls.
it didn’t work with me yet… as a formula…
if it does work running smooth the small ring like the big ring.
send me back the file.
let me know… please.
Thank you so much.
thnx Gondwana… no not this method… too many pictures will be added on.
thank you anyways.
Unfortunately we have no such tag that would be updated fast enough to make such movement to look smooth.
Other problem is, your small element has not 30, but 28 “grooves”.
Try to add something like [SEC_MSEC]*360/28 to its rotation properties in the field for tags. It will remain somewhere around the passing groove of the big circle, but will move with like 5 or 10 ticks per second.
Sorry; I didn’t mean to imply the use of images as per that link. I just meant that it documents the 15 fps limitation. Using tags, it should be possible to adjust the position, etc, of an element 15 times a second, but no faster.
@lebanoncedars As peter has pointed out your small cog has 28 teeth not 30 apart from not being on Pitch . I drew a 30 tooth for this test . It is rotating at twice the speed of the outside one . As the smoothest timing we have is 1/10 sec ( 10 HZ ) It is probably beast to run that at 10 HZ. The small cog is running at 10 HZ by flooring [SEC_MSEC] as discussed in the previous on the subject . It looks rubbish on WFS but no too bad on the watch . This is the best we get from WFS . You may like to look at composing your work in WFF . I can not help with that .

Thank you Russelcresser…
The file you added I open it… but the small ring circle is ticking. I want it to be smooth like the big ring circle.
here is another file with 30 the small ring… still ticking and is not going smooth like the big ring.
similar to yours…
thank you

Yes @lebanoncedars That is the point I am making . It will not get better than what we have . It is a Limitation Samsung Google have placed on the platform . The On board Hands rotation hidden Formulas are smoother . But soon as you try to apply a formula to the Rotation Angle it is lost as per the warning . As I said it looks not too bad on a Watch . There is nothing else we or anyone else can do with WFS .
You will see from the Previous that I got an Email from Samsung with thier Answer to the Question .
Thank you again so much…
