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.

A quick tip for Photoshop users when saving PNG-24 preset:

When saving a solid PNG (with no transparent pixel, ex.: a full background picture), the exporter does not includes the alpha channel on the final file, leaving it with a true 24-bit PNG file.

The tool will use the same mask for all image files, so if the background image is solid but all other images are transparent, it will save as a 32-bit PNG file and it will crash the bin packer.

Solution: when using transparent and solid images, save solid ones with the normal "Save As ..." option so it will not be optimized into a different bit mask.
I use pscs6 save as 32-bit PNG

The bin file can't be generated by the two methods

What software should I use to save PNG images?

When using Photoshop, the safest way to avoid errors is to add at least one transparent pixel.

Part of the second log file looks fine. If the bin file does not appear, then there may be an error in something else. It is necessary to find in the log file exactly where the error is.

The file on the second link is corrupted. Try to create it again or use an uncompressed file.
To check the correctness of the created bin file, try to unpack it with the editor.

I found the mistake.

That's the way it is:
},
"StepsProgress": {
"Circle": {
"CenterX": 180,
"CenterY": 180,
"RadiusX": 135,
"RadiusY": 135,
"StartAngle": 0,
"EndAngle": 360,
"Width": 4,
"Color": "0x0000FE21",
"Unknown9": 0
}

The program ALWAYS saves the json incorrectly. It ALWAYS stands

},
"StepsProgress": {
"Circle": {
"CenterX": 179,
"CenterY": 179,
"RadiusX": 177,
"RadiusY": 177,
"StartAngle": 0,
"EndAngle": 360,
"Width": 6,
"Color": "0x006FBDA8",
"Flatness": 0
}

No matter what you set. It always saves with "Flatness": 0
Is it a bug?

You have to change the json flatness to Unknown9 manually. Then it works

Elsa.von.Arendelle
It should be "Flatness". The "Unknown9" parameter was in older versions. If you only work with the "Unknown9" parameter, then perhaps you unpacked the new version of the program over the old one. Reset settings in the program or unpack it into a new folder.

GTR user. Is there a chance to add more shortcuts? To messages, compass? Or it is firmware limited to four that now exist? Thanks for reply.

And seems that "Alignment": "TopRight" dont work. All image combos are alignment to left.

No, other shortcuts are not supported by the firmware.

The alignment does not work if the label does not fit into the rectangle specified by the coordinates. Decrease the coordinate of the top left corner.

Hi,

I notice that when you are using an image for a progress bar, the line ending changes aren't shown in the preview window. They all show flat but in the watch it does have an effect.

Also, this warning isn't translated to english. What does it mean?

It is recommended to use 6 segments to display the heart rate.

I know that the pictures for animation don't have to be last. If there is such a problem for other indicators, I will check and try to add a warning in the next version.

Once u have created all the elements. Goto the tab editing and select Save JSon
Then goto the first tab Upack/pack and select Pack and compress bin and select the JSon file that u saved just now

First of all, big applause to you Sasha CX75 for creating this program. The program is easy, pleasant and clear. I only have a problem with the analog tips. I am never sure which tip and why is on the 1st plan and what dependencies are guided by it. The same goes for the other tips. I recently did a dial for the GTR with pulse progression, and this tip is in the background. I do not have GTR and I do not know what the final effect of the work will be. Maybe you can explain how it works. I wish you good health.

If we are talking about the hands on the analog dial, then first the hour hand is drawn, above it the minute and second hands. If the second hand is off-center, it is drawn below the other hands.

In the editor, I tried to take into account the drawing order of the elements, and in most cases the image in the program matches the image on the clock.

thanks for the answer. Unfortunately, the preview is correct and not on the dial anymore. if you can view this file. and see what with the pulse arrow, please. gts/view/3242 lub gtr/view/9106

Looked at gtr/view/9106 dial. The pulse arrow on the watch and in the program seems to be displayed the same way. But I don't recommend making the difference between the start and end angles greater than 360.

BUT THE ARROW ON THE WATCH IS UNDER THE BOTTOM. SAME WITH THE ARROW OF SECONDS. PLEASE CHECK THE SECOND ARROW.

Is there a way to add shortcuts for timers, countdown, compass etc. to your watch face. I have amazfit t-rex and i can't find anything helpful on this topic.

The pulse arrow on the watch and in the editor (v 8.5) is displayed below the rest of the arrows.
The second hand is not displayed correctly, will be fixed in the next version.
If I misunderstood you, then show on the screenshot what exactly is wrong.

branislavpoposki
Only 4 types of shortcut can be added in the editor. I don't know if all these types of shortcuts work on t-rex.

THANK YOU FOR YOUR INTEREST. PULSE PROGRESSION IS NOT IMPORTANT MATTER. THIS SHIELD IS NOT IMPORTANT TO ME, I WILL WAIT WITH HER FOR A NEW VERSION. IT IS MORE IMPORTANT TO UNDERSTAND THE ARRANGEMENT OF THE MINUTE, HOUR AND SECOND ARROW. NOT ALWAYS THE RESULT IN THE PROGRAM GIVES A DISPLAY ON THE WATCH. I CAN SOMEONE ADVISE ON GTS BECAUSE I CAN CHECK IT. ON GTR NO MORE AND IT BURNS ME. GREETING, AND THANK YOU FOR CREATING THIS PROGRAM. YOU ARE GREAT .

No. In GTR2 / GTS2 another way to create a bin file. I don't know a way to parse the bin file from GTR2 / GTS2 yet.

I think I already know what are the dependencies in the position of the arrows. after many attempts I come to the conclusion that the position of the central image is of key importance. Thank you very much for your interest and I wish you good health and success.
