Icon not displaying on Versa 2

ANSWERED

I recently had a watchface declined for submission for publication, but I am having trouble trying to figure out what the issue might be. The state reason by the reviewer was, "# the calories icon was not displayed when tested on the Versa 2 (stat number was present though)". It would seem implied by this feedback that all the other icons are working fine. The calories icon works fine in the simulator for Versa, Versa Lite, and Versa 2. I don't have a physical Versa 2 to test on. Reviewing the code and art files, I am feeling baffled about what the issue might be. Everything with the calorie icon seems the same as the other icons, and in the other couple watchfaces I have worked on. Are there any special issues with icons on the Versa 2 that might cause icons to drop out on physical devices?

At a wild guess, it could be because you're trying to resize images on the watch (and flame seems especially large). That's a dangerous passtime because the watch is relatively weak. Put resized versions of images in your project that are, ideally, exactly the same resolution as that at which they'll be displayed.

Gondwana, after taking another look at the flame image again, I'm inclined to think you're probably right. I hadn't realized I left the image quite that large. I'll try scaling it way down, submitting a new build, and see what happens.
