Watch Face Studio Feature Requests

  • The ‘Step goal’ is not supported on the platform, so we decide to provide the function to specify the step goal directly.
  • Main menu > Project > Setting > Health tab > Set step goal

I agree having a couple variables that the designer can use for their own use would be nice.

Layer images and use Tag Expressions for Opacity
use Tag expressions to move images in and out of the watch face.

I agree that is a good work around. In my case I want to be able to tint an animation from day to night which would mean I would need to have 2 animations which I was trying to avoid.

Is this what you want?
Enable Tags for Hex color setting

Correct, that is what I was asking for as a feature request.

Example:

(tag condition ? #FFFFFF : #000000)

Thats the point. Setting fixed step goal for users is inadequate as every user (not just GW4 users) has different goal. When we release an app with 10000 or 7500 or 5000 steps goal, users are complaining that they dont want our 'preset" steps goal.

If we can set steps goal / hr measurement interval in WFS, it shouldnt be problem to set is as “user set variable”. In that way we wont need these two settings in project > settings. These setting can be removed from WFS completely because user will set their own goal in watch face setting (as on screenshots above)

Designers dont want steps goal to be synchronized (connected) with “platform” steps goal in S Health. If our user want same goal as in S Health, he will set it on watch face setting to match S Health one. In that way our watch faces will have fully working steps goal on every platform :slight_smile: As of today but with ability to set own goal.

Request if in the next WFS update, if some sample projects can be included, just like the GWS.

On GWS it was very helpful and fast to learn the various order of things.

Thank you

Request if in the next WFS update, if some sample projects can be included, just like the GWS.

you can download 3 of them from the WFS Download page

I’ll see if we can make others available, was there any particular one you found useful?

I think having separate examples is more the Android tradition. I didn’t check GitHub but they are probably Android Studio examples there.

AWESOME! THANK YOU!

Dont know how I missed it. The “Outdoor_activity” is the type I need. Something more on that will be awesome. GitHub is not for my level. Its for the coding pro’s :slight_smile:

Thanks again.

I would like to automatically display the date format for the European Zone 07/10 or the US Zone 10/07

I’d suggest you use the tag [IS_24H] or the timeline just like the 12 / 24 hour clock. The time library does not show locality information only Timezone

Yes, I miss this feature too. Cant make the hands shades and shadows without it. Unrealistic on Wear OS.

Weather app on the watch does not refresh automatically despite the setting that it should refresh every hour.
That’s why it doesn’t update the data of the data on the watch complication.

Is there a option in the next update to add the option by the fonts to remove fonts?

Add_Font

Add_Remove_Font

Is there a possibility that in the new version a extra option bij the language selection to select a whole language group as in Watch Face Designer.
See example.

Language Select

I’ll add that if there isn’t in the next update.

[BATT_PER] Tag only shows up to 100%. Please make it possible to display more than 100% as in GWD.

[BATT_PERC]??? Did you mean [SC_PER] Or?

Oh, sorry.
It’s [SC_PER]!!

Use this tag:
(([SC]/([SC_GOAL]/100))*10%1>0.99?([SC]/([SC_GOAL]/100))+0.1-([SC]/([SC_GOAL]/100))*10%1/10:([SC]/([SC_GOAL]/100))-([SC]/([SC_GOAL]/100))*10%1/10) %
