AmazFit WatchFace editor for Windows by SashaCX75

Post by SashaCX75 »

Graphics editor for working with dials Amazfit
The editor supports watch faces from GTR 47, GTR 42, GTS, T-Rex, Verge Lite.
Screenshot
Image
Note: the path to the program should not contain spaces, it is advisable to unpack it to the root of the disk.
Not all dials can be unpacked.
You can reduce the size of the bin file only by reducing the size of the images (height * width) or by reducing the number of images.

The drawing order of elements cannot be changed. The only exception is if you move the second hand from the center, it will be drawn under the hour and minute hands.

If the .bin file is not created, then you need to look for errors in the .log file. Most often this happens when images have the wrong format.

If the bin file is not created, and the log file contains the entry “bad transparency mask”, this means that the format of one or more images is incorrect (most often it occurs if you save the image in Photoshop without transparent pixels). You can fix it as follows:
- in Photoshop - add at least one transparent pixel
- in GIMP exported to PNG 16 bit RGBA
- in XnView - Image -> 32 bits

Beta version of the editor with support for Amazfit X

AmazFit WatchFace editor 2 with support for GTR 2, GTS 2, T-Rex Pro

My editor doesn't work with GTR2 (GTS2) watch faces and I have no plans to add support for these models anytime soon. I don't know any other programs that can work with these dials. I have no information if anyone is working in this direction.

Because I bought a GTR 2e, the program will no longer be updated.

How did you get the seconds hand to display under the other two? On the GTS it seems the seconds hand is always on top? (With hours hand on the bottom)
I have no idea how it happened, and that's what I want to fix... :lol:

I'd like to know if there is any way to choose where to put every hand... :roll:

hello, I'm using GTR_WatchFace version 8, when i packed my bin files they are over 1.95mb.
So i did a test, I downloaded a 1.6mb wachface, unpacked and did not modify it, packed again but it was 2.17mb.
Is something malfunctioning or do I have a bad application configuration?

I have a watch face in which Seconds hand is shown under Hours and Minutes hands (it passes below them, so when time is 0:00:00 you can't see Seconds hand, it always passes below the other two hands). Is there any way to set Minutes hand to be shown at the bottom, Hours hand at the middle, and Seconds hand at the top?
The hands are usually drawn in this order - hour hand, minute hand, second hand. If you move the second hand from the center, it will be drawn below the rest of the hands.

Maybe 1.6mb is a zipped wachface. And in an unzipped state it is 2.17mb. But then it is not clear how it works. What kind of wachface did you download?

It's not ziped file. I compared the bin files without compression.
I did other test, packed with main.exe and the file is also smaller. I guess is the preview file that makes the difference, is it possible to pack bin without preview? And compressed also?

I think you can pack without a preview but I haven't tried it. I have packed with a blank preview image to try and cut down on file size and it was fine.

According to your link, an unzipped file initially has a size of 2.17mb (English version). Where did you see the size 1.6mb I do not know. Some elements do not work because the size is more than 2mb. The recommended preview file size is 266x266 pixels. If you reduce the size of the preview file, then the size of the bin file should fit into the 2mb limit.
All .png files names that consist of numbers are packed into a bin file, other files are not packed into a bin.

Jackall Digital has a few tutorials on YouTube for the Mi Band but the general concepts are the same. The GTR watchface tool just makes it much easier and faster to put the watchface together.

Check the uncompressed packed.bin file generated: it must be lesser than 1.5 MB; else, it could work wrongly in the watch.

Reviewing an old my sphere I observed that had defined the step target (8000). When I want to modify it with your program I notice that it does not support that field. The definition of this field is:
"Activity":
"StepsGoal":
"TopLeftX": 60,
"TopLeftY": 293,
"BottomRightX": 60,
"BottomRightY": 40,
"Alignment": "Default",
"Spacing": 1,
"ImageIndex": 12,
"ImagesCount": 10

Do you plan to include it in the next release?

Greetings.

If there is a need, I can add. For example, give only a working watchface where this parameter is.

I've put the Bumblebee sphere on the page. The dial is fully functional. You can only see the Stepsgoal statement in json if you unpack it with the old tools.

Hello, as much as I simplify it, I have removed enough images of the weather, it always keeps coming out that it occupies more than 1.5, I see more complex spheres and they work well, I do not understand it, thanks ...

Preview normally is 266x266 for GTR47mm if you use the 0001.PNG [Background section -> Preview ]
You can resize it to what size you want, do a square with only the name on it... it's as you wish.
But if you want you can use a 1X1 pixel - transparent PNG for the preview if you still want to use the preview feature
or simply don't use it... you leave a blank field [ It means no picture used ] [Background section -> Preview ]

Honnestly now, I don't use it :
You can only have one custom face, I'm always on my custom face.... So^^ it save me time when I sync face to my GTR [ smaller size transfer faster ] and space on my HDD.

Open the spoiler to see an illustrated example, you can zoom on it by simply clicking it :
