bigclkinfo: new app - one fullscreen clock info

[thyttan]

Initial version of an app proposed at https://github.com/orgs/espruino/discussions/6957#discussioncomment-14091812

• An app that is just a single clock info field, full screen.
• I use a clock without clock infos, but having them accessible by a swipe on quicklaunch would be neat.

Try it out at https://thyttan.github.io/BangleApps/?id=bigclkinfo

Tried it out, there are a couple of bugs:

• Only clears half the text, leading to what you see above - The clockInfo dimensions might need to be tweaked
• You can't see it in the picture, but sometimes the widget bar will appear, and only when I switch a clockInfo does it clear.

Other than that, I would love to see where this is headed!

• fix icon on watch - black on black with darl theme.

I can't seem to reproduce this. Can you post a repro?

The app doesn't load widgets so not sure why that is happening for you. Was thinking maybe fastload utils? But I don't think that should be the cause in this case...

[RKBoss6]

I don't have widget utils or fastload utils installed... I think when a widget updates for me it triggers a redraw of the whole bar. I that normal behaviour? Otherwise it might just be a problem on my end. That could also be what's causing the text to not be cleared. If it's shifting due to the widget bar, it could cause issues, right?

[thyttan]

The apps are responsible for loading in widgets on launch then most is left up to the widgets themselves (barring widget_utils stuff).

Come to think of it, do you think it's a consequence of using the loading animation you're working on?

[RKBoss6]

I tried removingloadanim, and it didn't affect anything. I think the widgets are being drawn when a widget updates (eg. bluetooth disconnects), and the clearing issue remains... Can you share a screenshot of what the app looks like on your side?

[thyttan]

bigclkinfo doesn't load widgets. In the normal case when you launch it everything else is cleared and the watch is reset before the app is loaded. So no widgets will be present.

Is there a clock info that displays widgets? If you have such a clock info maybe that would be the culprit.

But other than that I read you have some memory leaking currently. I suspect when you work that out bigclkinfo will behave better.

[RKBoss6]

Hmm, the leak seems to have been fixed now, and the problems still persist. Just to make sure, when you switch lists and items, no clearing issue happens? Also try disconnecting bluetooth or updating/redrawing another widget to see if that's shown. @gfwilliams or @bobrippling would you mind testing this out as well to see if it's an issue with my watch, or a global issue?
