SDK5 errors

[fibby]

Besides a lot of manual work for developers, the new platform also seemed to have a lot of other issues. I followed the SDK 5.0 migration and I have got a whole bunch of errors. The simulator also seemed to be stuck in the low battery screen after I changed the battery level. It looks like that this migration will cause the developers a fair bit of frustration.

Take a look at the migration guide to fix some of those errors:

https://dev.fitbit.com/build/guides/migration/#sdk-4-x-to-5-0

.gui imports should be .defs

mixed text component has been removed.

[Credelius]

It's  a mess that would require re-writing an app's UI completely. The list of defs that have been removed and UI controls are below for my app. Is there any way to convert the old GUI to the new one automatically or semi-automatically? Who was a genius that has made this wonderful decision about not supporting existing UI controls? 

Defs/CSS:

mixed_text_widget.defs

dynamic_textarea.css

combo_button_widget.defs

square_button_widget.defs

UI's

#combo-button-* (all combinations)

#mixed-text-* (all combinations)

A minor point about your post, just in case anybody else get confused by testing the  "Power + Display" settings in the simulator, and thinks that it got stuck.

If your clock displays the battery level, and you test it by moving the power level indicator in the simulator for the Versa 3 and Sense devices, you will get a message saying that certain features were turned off to conserve the battery power.  At first, I couldn't figure out how to get past it, and it did look like the simulator was stuck.  It's not ...

Flick up on the screen to get through the text.  At the bottom of the long text message, there is a "Got It" button.  Click the "Got It" button and you can continue testing.

At first, it confused me too.  😉

good to know, Thanks for sharing

[fibby]

Thanks, it looks like I have mixed up and run the SDK4 version on SDK5. I have straighten things out and now left with this error.

Conflicting use of attribute 'data-size' in cycleview-item

[Credelius]

That's right. square_button is gone. You'll need to replace it with icon_button: https://dev.fitbit.com/build/guides/user-interface/svg-components/buttons/

mixed_text is gone and it's the most painful change for me. Need to use <text> or <textarea> instead

dynamic_textarea is still alive, you just need to change .gui with .defs to avoid errors

You don't need to specify dynamic_textarea.css anymore - just remove that line

Good luck!

Hey @Credelius do you know what can be used instead of combo-button which had 3 properties. 

1. href="combo-button-icon"

2. href="combo-button-icon-press"

3. href="combo-button-stroke"

@Jon, if you can point in the correct direction?

Hi fibby,

Were you able to fix this error? I am still facing the error: "Conflicting use of attribute 'data-size' in cycleview-item" when building and running a clock for sdk5 + Versa 3.

[fibby]

no, I am still getting the error but the functionality is running fine and I have got approval to publish the clockface. 

[TanviK]

Thanks! I will submit my clock for review then.

Hey, this reference to having 2 devices still, correct?

[audfit]

Not yet, but I figured that some errors in SDK 5 are mixed up with the previous version and sits tight in cache.

The build produced this error "[5:19:50 PM] App: Error 22 Load event was not sent due to missing type handler '(null)' in ./Resources/switcher/switcher_main.view"  and I found some 2 weeks old files on macos named like this "#-Resources-switcher-switcher_main.view.cache".

Did you find any way to replace combo buttons?  I have upper and lower icon combo buttons on the right of the screen that work with the physical buttons on my Versa.  The icons change when you press the button and the highlighting reverses.  Is there any way to keep any of this functionality with 5.0?

Here is some of the code I need to convert:

<!-- Start/Stop button -->
<use id="btnStartStop" href="#combo-button-lower-right" fill="fb-green">
<set href="combo-button-icon" attributeName="href" to="btn_combo_play_press_p.png"/>
<set href="combo-button-icon-press" attributeName="href" to="btn_combo_play_p.png"/>
<set href="combo-button-stroke" attributeName="display" to="inline"/>
</use>
