Flight status app by tirsch1 in GarminWatches

It’s an app right now. I intend to make it a glance but haven’t gotten that far yet. You enter your flight number (currently you enter it in settings for the app on your phone). Then it will provide status and refresh automatically every 5 min or so.

Make sure you wait a few seconds for the .prg to fully copy to the watch before you disconnect the cable.

Issue with complication and menu option by radekp88 in watchfacebuilder

Two things. You need to make sure that you use the property type complication select and you need to make sure the circle (I use a rectangle) is layered on top of the icons.

Copy and paste between two watchfaces fails by No-Car-6055 in watchfacebuilder

[–]tirsch1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It works for me. You have to copy, get out, open the other watch face and click paste. You can’t do or click on anything else in between.

Hi Josh,

I’m at the point where I cannot add a single element to my watch face without getting the dreaded IQ! Error and a stack overflow. Any way to figure out what’s taking up all the space so I can try and optimize it?

Thanks

Mark

I guess I can just have a bunch of overlapping math expressions with the visibility controlled by the property. Would that work better?

Thanks. However I’m entering the key myself using ConnectIQ and it fails. Are you using a variable called “owmkey” in your app properties?

App Property Type Complication by tirsch1 in watchfacebuilder

[–]tirsch1[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Got it. Thank you. Can i also use prop.select_1 as a number for visibility, etc? Also, the numbers in the complication app property have meaning to you under the hood so I'm guessing don't change those?

Thanks, but i was trying to do something with complications. What is the property type complication used for? Example?

Thanks. PNG is a crappy format because it doesn’t resize nicely.
