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

@suuntopartnerteam or others, I have a few questions:

1. type=“subscribe-when-shown” in an eval.
   – Is it more efficient when the related subscribed information is not displayed?
   – Can I overcome the 10 inputs limit using this? Considering I won’t display more than ±7 inputs at the same time.
   – Do I still need to mention the related input in the manifest?

1bis. I am considering to make some fields to be displayed configurable which means that based on configuration, one input or the other will be used. How to overcome the 10 inputs limit in such a case?

2. I do not find the setting to enable touch screen on Suunto Race S. It is also disabled in menu to select end of workout.

Thanks.

Hi, I tried to get offline maps data from some Caribbean islands but I cannot get them from the maps download. I was looking for st. Maarten or Saba for example. Can these maps be added to download please? They are visible on the maps itself, but not as offline map.

Does anyone tried to display array of values in <graph> element? I tried output array as variable and show it in graph using get compilation type but i am not suceasfull yet.

I try to get thedistance, bearing and coordinates of a POI

For the distance I use “/Navigation/Poi/Active/Distance” which indeed returns the distance.

For coordinates I try to use “/Navigation/Targetlocation/Coordinates”. This works in the simulator but no results on the watch
For bearing I use “/Navigation/Targetlocation/Bearing” which is undocumented, but suggested by the intellisense. This one also doesn’t report any values.

Is it possible to get the bearing and coordinates of a selected POI?

@assaf1007 You are using two different strings for getObject and setObject.

This should be a minimal working example which pushes settings.active up by 1 whenever you start an exercise:

var settings = null;
function onLoad(input, output) {
  settings = {
    maxPace: 12,
    timelapse: 123,
    active: 0,
  };
  loadSettings()
}

var loadSettings = function () {
  var loaded = localStorage.getObject("appSettings");
  if (loaded != null) settings = loaded;
  // else localStorage.setObject("appSettings", settings);

  settings.active++;
  localStorage.setObject("appSettings", settings);
};

function evaluate(_inp, _out) {
  setText("#active", String(settings.active))
}

function getUserInterface() {
  return {
    template: 't'
  };
}

and the html:

<uiView>
  <div>
    <div id="active" class="p-m">
      0
    </div>
  </div>
</uiView>

So:

but i wish to be able to set values at the watch itself (if possible) … in such case, i need (= user need) some kind of a preliminary UI (before app starts) to be able to update settings…

Possible indeed! The ‘tennis score pro’ application has a start screen which saves the settings for the next time.
