User selectable timezone feature

I’d like to display a time on the dial (HH:MM default device timezone) and then allow the user to tap on it and select a different timezone.

There’s World-time complication but that does something different - goes to a new display and displays multiple user selectable timezones.

I’d like the user selectable tz to be updated on the main face.

I know I asked this question before but it was to the wrong forum.

This is for wearos and WFS.

Thank you.

I think to make it possible you would have to use more powerful tool than WFS, which is limited in the features it has and even more in those it lacks. The situation and forum since last time you asked did not change.

You’d have to write your own complication, instead of using WFS’s built-in time display features.

Thanks.

Are there any documentations on how to write complications?

Heaps, but writing a complication is several orders of magnitude harder than designing a clockface. There’s an overview here. Follow links from there. The samples repository is also worth a look.

I just need to support a few timezones (4).

I read somewhere I can use styles to accomplish the same thing.

i.e. allow the user to select different styles and each will have one of the preset timezones set.

Possible?

Yes, that should be possible.
If you add 4 time elements and set each of them to desired different time zones, you can stylize masks over them to pick the style with your desired zone. Check this answer to a different question, which makes more sense for you, than for the original poster in that thread there (the example was there just for 3 variants I think).
