Pitch us your idea!

@ZephyrLabs Digistyle Watchface

Description

I would be very happy to have this Watchface added by default:
https://zephyrlabs.github.io/Watchfaces/Digistyle/

The Problem is the Name of the Watchface. Its name is also DigiStyle , which interfere with default Digistyle Watchface. Is it possible to add it under another Name ?

Thanks

@ZephyrLabs Maybe you have some idea, how to implement it in the main Firmware. I modified the Watchface to run on 1.8.0 Firmware, after 1.8.0 came out, but i cant integrate it in the actual build. After every update i have issues to implement it.

[ZephyrLabs]

regd the watchface name; It could be renamed to casiostyle or oldstyle, its purely what the general consensus is to name it :)

regd the build issues; it needs to be implements just like any other watchface, currently busy at the moment, maybe @kieranc can provide some guidance

[ITCactus]

It could be renamed to casiostyle or oldstyle

maybe casiostyle classis?...

i would like to see also the casio style like that from this thread
with week number, day number and days until the end of the year...
maybe after 1.9 release will UI emulator i'll find some time to implement it...

[explit28]

yes, CasioStyle would be good...

I am not a developer, maybe someone can point me to the right direction here:

/media/sdc1/Projects/InfiniTime-Builder/InfiniTime/src/displayapp/screens/WatchFaceDigital.cpp:181:25: error: 'displayedChar' was not declared in this scope; did you mean 'displayedHour'? 181 | if (hoursChar[0] != displayedChar[0] || hoursChar[1] != displayedChar[1] || minutesChar[0] != displayedChar[2] || | ^~~~~~~~~~~~~ | displayedHour make[2]: *** [src/CMakeFiles/pinetime-app.dir/build.make:790: src/CMakeFiles/pinetime-app.dir/displayapp/screens/WatchFaceDigital.cpp.o] Error 1 make[1]: *** [CMakeFiles/Makefile2:252: src/CMakeFiles/pinetime-app.dir/all] Error 2 make: *** [Makefile:91: all] Error 2

I tried already replace displayedChar with displayedHour but it doesnt helped. The code need to be changed somehow....

send a link to the source if it is on github, it will help to debug it 🙂

The source of the file is not on Github, its on your Github Pages.

the code written for that watchface is quite outdated, considering how much stuff has changed in the WatchFaceDigital.cpp file, it obviously wouldn't compile as DisplayedChar is not even declared in the header or the source file, to move the old watch face to the new file it will take a couple steps to modify and adapt to the new setup

[explit28]

Thanks for the info, @ZephyrLabs Maybe you or someone else will find time to rebuild it...

I am just writing to support the bid to have this watchface included with the next Infinitime version. I like the nod it gives to the history of digital watches.

Thanks, very cool! I wait for it!

[ITCactus]

well, just for fun, i tried to play with this watchface update (let's call it "Casio Digital"),
before attempt to make the "Casio G7710" style,
and i was able to convert it to the 1.9 code...
it could look like this

however, not sure why on photo it looks like black/blueish colors, but it supposed to be a black/gray one.
and that's a good part.

besides, there is "Support more than four watch faces #1055" issue, so the 5th watchface option can't fit in settings.
but it's not the worst part.
"it could be" - for a reason... the reason, why it's probably will not be accepted and will not be included into official InfiniTime build...
and the reason is the extra added size to the build....
it works on InfiniSim, but attempt to make a build for PineTime ends up with error:

sorry for a bittersweet news...

[explit28]

Wow, it looks really great! Yes i know the problem with the size. I think it was the case, why @ZephyrLabs has published it instead the origininal Digistyle Watchface. Maybe you could fork it and build it instead the original Digistyle ?
Thank you very much, @ITCactus !

This looks super cool, shame it's a bit too big. I'm guessing you're using an image for the background and top/bottom text, could it be split into smaller images or replaced with lvgl code? It wouldn't looks quite as good but it would maybe fit on the watch.
