Is it the way to remove leading zeros in day presented by DigitalClocklayer in one “as analog” window?

There is not a “standard” way. But there’s a trick to do it

I’ve posted this video a few posts/months back to answer the same question. I hope it helps. If not, feel free to tell me, so that I may try to explain it in a different way.

Didn't notice that. Thanks, it helps.

Hola Marco, no puedo ejecutar WFD (0.10.0) en un equipo nuevo con Windows 10. Me parece que a mi PC le falta instalar algo para que reconozca a la aplicación como ejecutable. Esto lo digo porque en el explorador de Windows me muestra a WatchFaceDesigner.jar simplemente como “Archivo Jar” y no sabe con qué aplicación abrirla.
Ya instalé Java SE Runtime Enviroment 8 Update 161 y no tuve éxito.
Saludos y espero me puedas ayudar.

It seems you have an association problem with jar files. Use this app to restore the correct association: johann.loefflmann.net/en/software/jarfix/index.html

I hope you’ve installed the 64 bit java version. If not, please install it. Also, run the jarfix app with the /64 parameter to associate jar files with the 64-bit java. To add the /64 parameter you should execute jarfix on the command line with the command “jarfix /64” (without the quotes). Hope this helps.

Thank you Marco, you were right, the problem was an association issue with jar files. I downloaded and run Jarfix and my problem was immediately fixed. Now I can enjoy using WFD.

Hi. How can i resolve trouble with hour shadow

In XML file this layer exported correct

8

1

image8.png

Hand file correct

My watch FINOW X5 AIR

ClockSkin here Download: drive.google.com/open?id=1ygPoOIdkMEuJ3Dw1xDz8IxDLrx1WKkkI

There a source too, named ClassHutte.xml

This problem repeated on all skins that i create in WFD with shadow rotated layer

Hi Marco. thank you for all your work and your great program. I’m not that design/tech savvy, but most of the design features, can be learned by trail and error.

Unfortunately I’m struggling a bit with some of the more basic things. Ex. When I save a design, I get only one XML file, and none of the PNG files, and the face won’t work?

So I’m thinking, is there a “How to WFD - for Noobs and dummies”?

You use “Hour shadow” rotation. Perhaps there is a bug - I don’t use this kind of rotation - try to use standard “Hour” rotation with some offset in X and Y. For example hour hand is at X=200 and Y=200. Then picture for hour hand shadow has also rotation “Hour” but position is X=202 and Y=202. For me it works always.
 

Hi
First of all thank you for such a good practice.
I am doing the Turkish translation of the program.
But in some places, when I translate it looks like the picture below.
How can I fix this?

Those are the keys that are not yet present on the translation file. If my translation tool doesn't show them that's because not even I had translated the yet . You can fix it by adding those strings to your translation file. Just open them in a text editor and add at the bottom of the file something like this:

FILL_GRADIENT=your translation for fill gradient here

It should do the trick

You’ll have to export your design to Clockskin to use it in your android smartwatch. That option is on the File menu. It will export to a folder containing multiple files. Just put that folder on your watches “clockskin” folder, and that’s it

There is no manual, that I know of… The video on the first post is a little old, but it does show all the process of creating and exporting a clockskin… There are also many videos scattered through this thread (or on my youtube channel) that will show some tips and tricks.

Hi

I did not do the process you said.
I will wait for the new translation.

Thank you

Thanks for the advice. That’s exactly what I have to do. But I still think that the problem with the clockwise shadow is not in the WFD, but somewhere in the clock engine

Yes, I believe it's the clock engine. I can't do anything about it in WFD (and it does work correctly on some engines). I also don't recommend to use it, since the standard hour/minute/second rotation enables the same but with better control over the "light source" (or, at what angle should the shadow be casted). The shadow rotations are there only for compatibility with existing watchfaces.

Hi there can someone help me to solve a problem with my project i want to show power counterclock but only on 1/4 radius with multiplayer? Greets

auto rotation multiplier …

HI LOVE YOU PROGRAM !!!

Wondering if there is a way to fix the auto rotation multiplier
It only Does HOLE numbers … May watch faces need to scale to the .5
like it only does +or- 3 , 4 , 5 ect./ need to use 3.25 , 3.50 , 3.75 ect
Anyway way we can get it to do that ?

Thanks !
mpmf

Very Nice App !!!

Love it !!!

Thank you so much !

i have made 2 watch faces until now with your software and love it !!!

Question:  i got a KW88 and if i add Weather / Temp items,  it doesn’t work on the watch…   So i think the KW88 did’nt support it ?

Could you make a version of this for Android? I’d love to use this on the go.

Hi marco . Hope you are well . Just a quick question . Not heard from you in a while . Have you finished the development of this ?

Keep up the good work

Thankyou
