Time does not use color theme

Watch Face Studio
1

When using WFS 1.9.5 when using digital clock time and setting it to a theme color it shows in the WFS program but not on the watch when it gets uploaded. To make it work I have to add a Mask to it.

I have tested it on my end, and it is working perfectly.

Could you please share a sample project where you are experiencing the issue? This will help us better understand and address the problem.

I just came across this same issue with one of my digital watch faces that I updated. It’s maddening!!!

Thank you for validating this problem.

Ditto, I thought it was just me. Hopefully Samsung gets us a new stable version of WFS soon. 1.9.5 has left us with a lot to be desired.

strange. I also use WFS version 1.9.5 and I create a digital watchface with various colors . It works without problems on my Galaxy Watch 6 Classic with Wearos 5. I use MacOS 15.7.1

It only happened on one of my 18 digital faces. It was on my 6 Classic with OneUI 8, and my Ultra with OneUI 8. I didn’t try it on my Pro 5 with OneUI 6.

I continue to have this problem on the Watch 7 Ultra.

Same issue here. Seems the Digital Clock component is buggy, lacks the tintColor=“[CONFIGURATION.themeColor.1]” attribute for the PartText element.

Sample buggy code:

<Group x="0" y="333" width="450" height="113" name="Time_eefd" alpha="255">

            <Variant mode="AMBIENT" target="alpha" value="0" />

            <Group x="0" y="13" width="450" height="100" name="HH:MM_3582" alpha="255">

                <ListConfiguration id="75179a48_fe50_43df_8fc4_fa66389ca8a6">

                    <ListOption id="0">

                        <Group x="0" y="0" width="450" height="100" name="HH:MM_3582">

                            <PartText x="0" y="0" width="450" height="100" alpha="0">

                                    value="clamp(floor((100 + ([MILLISECOND]&lt;500?0:-100)) / 100 * 255), 0, 255)" />

                                <Variant mode="AMBIENT" target="alpha" value="255" />

Fix is simple, just unpack the aab, edit the xml manually and repack aab/generate apk.

Of you go through this process, how do we send this adjusted version to the watch?

Doneer need to go get into the build folder, make the changes and the. Upload
