I’m trying to pass the default index of a uiViewSet like this:

main.js

function getUserInterface(input) {
  return { 
    template: "t",
    uiViewSet:{index: input}
   };
}

This is assigning all input resource values (i.e an array) to index, perhaps that’s not what you’re looking for? You could use an individual input or output value, e.g.:

function getUserInterface(_input, output) {
  return { 
    template: "t",
    uiViewSet: { index: output.index }
  };
}

There also seems to be some string case conversion going on, I only get it to work if I use all lowercase {zapp_uiviewset_index} in HTML.

Perhaps the more standard solution in the previous answer is better, but using input or output values is also possible.

Also, if you return uiViewSet:{index: input}, the minified JavaScript code will be: return{template:'t',uiViewSet:{index:input}}. This seems incorrect, because input variable doesn’t exist in the minified code. Maybe there’s no use case for this, but looks like a JavaScript conversion / minifier bug anyway.

@Raimo-Järvi Nice find! Thanks for diving into this as well.
In the mean time I had to change some other code and the issue became obsolete, but I will definitly remember this in future projects.

Hi.

Is there a way to obtain the GPS position using a input resource other than

/Navigation/Gps/Coordinates/{Filter}

which requires enabling navigation on the watch at the start of the exercise, something that’s not desirable for the app I’m developing?

Thanks.

Edit: That service provides the coordinates even if navigation is disabled. It’s possible that if navigation is disabled, it takes a few seconds to provide them, which is why my code failed as initially written.

@Tomas5 the only diff is see between us is the stroke color. maybe default is black so you don’t see it?

2 questions regarding Settings

• How can a user approach my app’s seetings if i bypass the suuntoplus app? (i deploy directly…)

• and another settings question:

on vsCode i wish to keep a setting value for the next time, so , as a test to see if it works i do:

var loadSettings = function(input, output) {
settings = localStorage.getObject(“appSettings”);
settings.active++;
if (settings == null) {
settings = {
maxPace: 12,
timelapse: 123,
active: 0
}
}
localStorage.setObject(“appVariables”, settings); //save
}

so i’m advancing ++ and saving.

• on vsCode indeed it works (i added debug on UI to view value), but on my watch it stays 1…
  ideas?

You can use a “data.json” file to enter the settings. Is that what you’re looking for?

@assaf1007 thanks it helped, in simulator line is always blue regardless storke color, but in watch it needs defined stroke-color to work properly.

[assaf1007]

@surfboomerang i’m using data.json and may use its values inside the .js file
but i wish to be able to set values at the watch itself (if possible), not at vsCode or suuntoplus app.
imagine a co2 table (for freedive practice) where user must set specific personal values.

• in such case, i need (= user need) some kind of a preliminary UI (before app starts) to be able to update settings…

@Dimitrios-Kanellopoulos Hello, should the BLE-connection system in the SDK also work in the simulator on windows?

[Nikolai Simonov]

@brechtvb no BLE works only on the physical wacth
