About

My work will stay free of course, but if you would like to donate and support me: https://www.paypal.me/FlipStone ----------------- This watchface is largely inspired on the excellent watchfaces "Quattro" and "Racing" by PlayItLoud so please support him if you want. https://apps.garmin.com/en-US/apps/e43ef9a1-850f-4462-8719-9766f8ee528d https://apps.garmin.com/en-US/apps/975a3857-564d-4687-8a29-1717ce295d39 But I wanted some small customizations and mostly have an efficient and simple (hence the name "Direct Watchface") as possible watchface so I made a variant on them myself... IMPORTANT! PLEASE READ BEFORE ASKING QUESTIONS! * Seconds are not always shown?! Seconds are only supported on watches supporting '1hz' mode (such as models since the F5, 935, etc). This is a very power efficient mode to refresh for example a part of the display. Older watches such as the 235, 735xt, etc don't have this mode so can't continuously refresh the screen and therefor aren't able to display seconds and therefor don't show them. * Temperature is not correct? The temperature field simply shows the temp measured by the internal sensor and is thus also influenced by your wrist for example, it is NO weather service related temperature... * Where is 24 or 12 hr time support? Time format is set on the watch itself, it's a system wide setting, and has nothign to do with the watchface. The watchface simply shows the time as returned/set by the watch itself. Settings can be changed using the garmin connect mobile app or garmin express on the computer, read this for more info: http://actiface.blogspot.com/2018/03/connect-iq-application-settings.html Options: - Set various colors (time, background, 'accents' for the field labels and lines) - 4 User customizable fields, where each field can be assigned a static and active field (active fields are only shown when flicking the wrist for example, when the watch becomes active) Date Battery percentage (can be colored red when below critical level, set to 0 to disable) Steps, Calories, Active minutes per day/week, Pressure, Temperature, DIstance, Heartrate, Sunset/Sunrise, Altitutde, Stairs taken If you have any issues, requests, etc, please contact me first using the 'contact developer' option before leaving negative reviews...
