Hi all,
For give my poor English, please.
Modify the hand. Instead of pointing up, create hand to point to -90. Install and set direction to clockwise. Adjust angle -60 and start angle to where it ends 120. Test ON WATCH ONLY. DO NOT TEST ON CSM, it will give false reading. Experiment with the angles to adjust for accuracy. The numbers I wrote may be incorrect. IMPORTANT: TEST ON WATCH.

Thanks for help. I've done it b4, still got weired angle. Does "mulrotate=-1" cause this problem? I just wonder there is no "RULE" for Angle/StartAngle at the same point.
I’m facing the same problem with battery rotation angle and start/finish.
What does that “mulrotate” means anyway??
Think of mulrotate as a type of “gear ratio” for instance 3 to 1. i.e. Setting the rotation to this would make the sub second hand rotate 3 times to every 1 rotation of the main seconds indicator hand. It will work for other rotations as well but it will not hold a sustainable rate when you set the values in the negative unless you are using a very extreme negative, say -70 to 1 etc., if you are trying to create multiple rotations of different indicators. For instance if you set say, a sub second hand to rotate at a -3 to 1 the -3 selected indicator will always “jump back” to the start position before completing its -3 to 1 sweep. Even when adjusting the angles this complication cannot be acquired due to firmware limitations. Mulrotate -1 will still hold the same value as 0 or 1 you cannot by proxy have a gear ratio of -1 to 1 it will always cancel itself out. 1, 0 and -1 will hold precisely the same value. The programming is set to take its ques from the primary functions of the watch. It is pretty amazing the functionality CSM actually has due to these set limitations. Keep in mind I am not an expert by any means, this is my observation on the subject using the program.
After try and try, I still can not get “START POSITION” at a fix point by different angle/startangle parameter. What a maze on D5’s rule! And, it seems no angle range like this kind of clock face (<180), but 0~180 and/or 0-360 only. Even that, it change display angle or “NOT” while I set StartAngle…
Is there a rule can tell where to count start(0%) angle like 0/3/6/9 oclock position?
All I can use for range <180 is treat it as 0-180 on Angle=-90 / StartAngle=90. This is follow official rule(?) to get reasonably rate 0 ~ -/+50% ~ 100% at the moment. If battery gauge is 0-360 will be no problem.
I think so yes, look on the forum for Andrew Davis “nixie tubes” this has an example of what you are trying to do. You may need to create a mask and a full length hand.
Is there any solution to the problem yet?
Here’s the issue, almost every firmware release gives different results with the same face. This has been an issue since day one with no resolution except maually edit the face to work for that specific firmware. Then when an OTA comes out, do it again if there’s an issue.
ok, tried to find any relation or systematic behind the settings for 4hours now but no luck.
i give up.
