Always-on 2px jump [SOLVED]

[BenS]

Hi There,

Just made a watch face and noticed that all watch faces (not just mine) shift about 2px when they're in always-on mode, the jump back when you lift your wrist - anyone else see this?

I moved my custom watch face background 1px down and 1x right which improves things but there's still a slight jump.

Does anyone know if this is a bug that's on the radar - or how to fix?

Cheers, Ben

It is not a problem created by the watchface.
It is a function in the firmware that is intended to preserve the screen from pix burn when the screen is turned on for a long time. This function will randomly move the screen 1-2 pixs according to the time specified in the firmware. as far as I know. There is no way to turn this off this function .

Got it, thanks.

Just a note, after switching to Chrome for the watch builds, it looks like Chrome does the pixel shift when switching to the 'off' face instead.

So now when I lift the wrist, the 'on' face doesn't jump and it looks much better. Or maybe this is an update? Dunno.
