GP Today clockface suggestion

[DD_Blackheart]

@Giampi71

I tried the "Contact Developer" link in the Win10 app, but nothing happened when I clicked. And messaging a user directly on the forums here is not possible apparently?

So I'll just leave this here.

The displayed distance is abbriviated as "m" for miles, but it should be "mi" "m" would actually be for meters (also "mi" is used in the Fitbit Today app).

Also, it's apparently rounding up distance. In the today app it'll show distance as for example "2.88" but your clock shows it as "3". can this be fixed please?

Edit: I also just noticed the newly changed calorie count shows "calorie" instead of "calories"

Hi @DD_Blackheart

To "tag" a member, put the @ in front of their user name. They will get an email notification of the post.

I think since this is your first post, you were unable to send a private message. Some forum abilities are limited until you've posted a few times. You can't vote for a post until you've posted once, so now you can.

Hope you two connect.

Thanks for the tip @Odyssey13 !

Whatever the way I got the message. 🙂

I just submitted a new update to Fitbit hopefully addressing your valid comments. Thanks for using my clockface!

Update 1.5
- Fixed typo with miles as 'mi' rather than mi
- Distance is now with 2 decimals rather than units only
- Fixed calorie in place of calories

Next update planned is bringing color themes.

Excellent! And what fast turn around!

It's the advantage to live in a different timezone (Japan). I woke up. saw your message, started Fitbit Studio, modified the code, sent to Fitbit the new update, and went to work!

[Giampi71]

Update is live.

@Giampi71

! small issue, while for the most part the two decimal places are working right, and matching the Today app. I noticed 1 time where its still rounding up. the Today app showed "0.19 mi" while the clockface showed "0.2 mi"

[Giampi71]

Might be due to roundup or rounddown. I will check it for the next update, I'm busy trying to figure out how to properly implementing the settings in order to add color schemes. It's hard to learn when you are much over 40! 

[Giampi71]

Just to let you know I just sent a new version for approval featuring changeable colors via settings.

I took much more time than expected (age is definitely a limiting factor here ) but I hope you like it (still far from perfect however, for example HR icon and text are always white, sorry about that).

I am trying to change my distances from metric to American miles.

[Giampi71]

Hello @0tis0tis, 

the distance measure should be taken directly from the settings in your profile (to be changed at www.fitbit.com) or from the application under account->advance settings -> Units.

Let me know if you still face some problems, I just tried it again and found working properly. Thanks for using my clockface.

Welcome on board @0tis0tis, it's nice to have a new member around! Can you please try what @Giampi71 suggested? 

Additionally, I'd recommend taking a look at: How do I measure and adjust stride length for my Fitbit device?

Let us know if you need further assistance!

Hi,

I've been using your GP Today clock face, and I really like it.

Is it possible to show seconds on the clock (hours:minutes:seconds), as this would be very useful to me.

Thank you for your work creating this clock face. 

Kind regards,

Steve.

Hello @Steven-D , I'm really glad to see that somebody still appreciated my little clockface.

I had actually abandoned the Fitbit OS development due to lack of progress on the SDK itself, however let me see if I can can cook something for you 

[Giampi71]

Hello again @Steven-D ,

I do not longer own my Ionic (it dies like many others) however I started, after long time, to update the clock face.

One important thing is that the animated heart does not work any longer. It leverages to an external script that I believe is no loner working with Fitbit OS 3.1.

So I'm doing a version 2.0 that will feature, hopefully, other few improvements.

If you or any other would like to beta test (since I can use only the emulator) feel free to PM me.

Thanks

[Steven-D]

Hi

Thank you for your continued interest in this clock face.

I'd be happy to test the new version and provide feedback.

I don't mind that the heart no longer pulses. The reason I like your clock face is because it shows all relevant data including battery level and date, but is still simple and easy to read.

Many thanks.
