About

** EDIT 2025 ** This watch face is not maintained. It was a side project for myself (still using it). I'm sorry if it's not working well for you, but I'm not modifying it. I don't even remember how... BUT I'M GIVING AWAY THE CODE TO OPEN SOURCE Get it at https://github.com/ledouxe/Slanted280 ** Watch face inspired by the Enduro 2 stock face. Doesn't look like it that much anymore, but that was the initial spark! This watch face is designed for outdoor activities. Most data fields are there to plan how it's going to feel like outdoors on the run. There are a few others, but the idea is not to cram as many features as possible in this watch face. Made it for myself. Wanted to have exactly the fields I wanted, the way I wanted them and wanted to optimize it for speed and battery consumption. ** After a watch reboot, the weather fields will show "NA". Just wait a few seconds, go to a widget or something and come back to the watch face. I need to figure out an elegant way of fixing this. ** I am not trying to make money off of this, so I do not support all the different watch models, only the Outdoor series and some Forerunners because I've had a request for those. ** The numbers don't look the same as the screen shots on Forerunners, as they don't have the same system fonts. The watch face uses system fonts. The screen shots are from Fenix watches.** Enduro and Forerunner 255 and 955 don't support battery in days, so if you choose that, you'll get "NA". These watches also don't have the same system fonts as Fenixes and other watches from the Garmin Outdoors series, and that is why the display looks different. I did not make custom fonts, I use the watch's system font. Many people have asked for HR, so I did it. I hesitated because I didn't know if I could keep the watch face fast and the battery consumption low, but I did it as a personnal challenge. I have yet to calculate its impact on battery life, but it feels like it's reasonable. Here is how it works: - If seconds are off and there is a HR field, HR refreshes every second - If seconds are on, and there is an HR field, HR will only refresh on flick of the wrist and seconds will refresh every second - If there are more than one HR field, only one is kept and all other are switched to "None" Here is how "Night Time Behavior" works - In "No Power Economy" mode, the watch face stays the same during day time and night time - In "Small Power Economy" mode, the watch face stays the same except HR and seconds are turned off (the two things that refresh every second) - In "Max Power Economy" mode, the watch face only keeps hour and minutes and date (if it is one of the data fields) - Night time hours are configured in "User Settings" for the watch in the Garmin Connect app. Themes (Most of my themes are pretty ugly, but I wanted that feature): - Themes are packages with different colors for different parts of the watch face. - Themes are applied to sections if "Use Theme" is selected instead of a color. Otherwise the chosen color is used.

What's new

Version 2.4.1 - Minor changes - If calculated humidex is lower than 20C, then Humidex is equal to temperature - If wind speed is 0, then there is no wind direction - If watch face is in 12 hour mode (AM-PM), then the sunset is shown in 12 hour mode also. Version 2.4 - Added Recovery Time data field - Added wind direction to existing wind data field Version 2.3 - Added support for smaller size Fenix 6 and Fenix 7 - All field choices are now supported in top and bottom position - Envelope icon is now smaller Version 2.2 - Added "Night Time Behavior" which are options to save battery power during the night hours. See descriptions for more details. - Added Orange color theme. Version 2.1.1 - Improvement on the display of the 3 hour temperature forecast where single digit temperatures like 0 appeared as two digits (00). Version 2.1 - Fixed an issue with combined field temp + feels like crashing when weather was not available - Added 2 or 3 hours temperature forecast as a data field. There will be 3 hours if it takes 10 characters or less, and if it is too long it is two hours Version 2.0.4 - Color theme Fire is back (upon request) - Wind chill index is equal to temperature if wind speed is 0 Version 2.0.2 and 2.0.3 - Fixed an issue with HR refresh when seconds are off Version 2.0.1 - Patch so that after a reboot, once bluetooth is connected to the phone, try again to get Garmin Weather Version 2.0.0 - New engine with rewritten code. - Added support for Descent MK2 and Enduro watches - Stress is no longer an available data field (I found it totally useless) - Minor changes (ex: distance is now a round number, date is all capital letters, small things like that)
