Radian
· v2.5.7
About
Radian is an analogue watchface with a lot of customisable features including colours and the ability to display a selection of metrics directly on the watchface.
** IMPORTANT NOTE **
Due to the different CIQ API support levels across supported devices you may not be able to choose all available options for Radian.
Broadly speaking, Radian support for Garmin devices falls into two categories: PRE CIQ API 4.x and POST CIQ API 4.x. If your device falls into the POST-API 4.x category - which includes D2Mach1, D2AirX10, Epix2, Venu/Venu2 family, Fenix7 family, Forerunner 255/255m/955 and Vivoactive4 - then all functionality and features are available to you.
Any device that doesn't fall into the POST-API 4.x category currently falls into the PRE-API 4.x category and will remain there until Garmin decides to update the firmware to CIQ API 4.x (if it's even possible). This is out of my control.
There is a very important function available in POST CIQ API 4.x devices, called Graphics Pool, which makes more memory available to watch faces for advanced features and functions.

Briefly, this watchface can:
- Ability to reposition the Dials and Indicators on the watch face with 5 different layouts.
- Display up to 5 of the following metrics in either one of the 3 dials, or one of the two Indicators, or any combination:
- Altitude (Dial)
- Calories for the day (Dial) (Kcal)
- Distance (Dial)
- Weekly Active Minutes (Dial/Indicator)
- HR vs MAX (Dial/Indicator)
- HR vs Zones (Dial/Indicator)
- Steps (Dial/Indicator)
- Steps History (Dial)
- Floors Climbed (Dial/Indicator)
- Body Battery (Dial/Indicator)
- Stress (Dial/Indicator)
- Oxygen Saturation (Dial/Indicator) (if supported).
- Atmospheric Pressure (Dial)
- Temperature (Dial/Indicator)
- VO2Max Cycling (Dial/Indicator)
- VO2Max Running (Dial/Indicator)
- Respiration Rate (Dial/Indicator)
- Move Bar (Dial/Indicator)
- Battery Level Days (Dial/Indicator) (if supported)
- Battery Level % (Dial/Indicator)
- Display a Steps History graph of the past 7 days directly on the watch face.
- Display the Garmin Move bar directly on the watch face.
- Display the Battery level remaining (%) as the tick marks around the watch face, with some options for style, colour and size.
- Display the Battery level as a single clock tick mark on the watch face, or display the battery icon (showing 5 levels of remaining power).
- Display a second hand if the watch firmware permits
- Display primary and secondary metrics in any dial (Amoled devices) or cycle between metrics assigned to a dial or indicator (MIP devices).
- Show the day of the week and day of the month
- Show An icon to indicate Bluetooth connect, alarm(s) have been set, Do Not Disturb mode is on and Notification count
- Configure 27 different colour settings for the watch face. Colours can be from the pre-defined 64 colour pallette. On Amoled devices, you can also supply RRGGBB hex colour codes to display a more specific colour.
NOTES:
- All the functionality of this watch face will no doubt drain the battery more than a simple watch face that just shows the time (or the Garmin watch faces that are not developed in Connect IQ). Please be aware of that and make use of the various configuration options to reduce what's displayed on the screen (and therefore, processing).
- If after updating from an earlier release of this watch face it stops working, please uninstall and install again - there may have been settings updates.
- If you are experiencing app crashes, please ensure you have updated to the latest firmware on your device.
