Unable to see other Compilation options

Watch Face Studio
1

Hi there,
So I updated to the 1.2.5 version of the app and now when I get into the Compilation Settings, the only option i see under Providers, is Watch Battery and Empty.
Am I doing something wrong or everyone is seeing the same thing.

I’m using a MacBook pro, MacOS 12.3.1

Hello,
I am using WFS version 1.2.5 on my MacBook Pro, version 12.2.1.
For Short text complication I am getting all previous provider such as Watch battery, Date, day and Date, Next event etc.
But for Ranged value I am getting only empty and watch battery.
Could you please share which complication are you using?

Thank you for replying.
I guess you can see all option on short txt, used by itself, but not if you use “Ranged Value Complication”

The philosophy of Wear OS is to have a standard user interface across all watches that run Wear OS. Therefore complications providers listed in WFS are only those that are available for all watch brands. It is up to the end user to customize complications, if there are other complications of that type provided by that watch version.

When it was just Galaxy Watch Studio we knew exactly what would be provided in each Watch.

Thank you,
But that makes it so much harder to push a simple Progress Bar to track even small things like Steps.
Do you have any direction on how to link a Progress Bar to Steps, for example? This way is nicer visual effect on the Watch face when associated with steps number.
Based on what i can see, you guys are intentionally limiting what can be associated and by this, almost all watch faces will have the details all the same, with no creativity added to them.

In the progress bar properties → Range Setting → Value by default it is 75 change that to zero and then set the tag to [SC_PER]

Yes and no you can pretty much do any complication yourself it if has a tag but that won’t be customizable. Customization is part of the Wear OS mentality but not required.
