Screen wake up event

[zdunex25]

@MyoungXUE I started to play with animations recently and users feedback is that they like animations, but not when they play everytime you interact with your watch. For now if I wanna start animation on raise to wake gesture I have to call it in resume_call, but resume_call gets called everytime user goes to the main screen, from setting, notifications etc. Do you know anything about how to recognize raise to wake gesture?

hi @zdunex25,
This feature is currently not supported, and it's not easy to implement either. This is because the watch face startup time occurs before the screen power-up time.

According to this:

I tried to control animation start by boolean, I pass true in resume_call and false in pause_call yet this does not work until watchface reloads, so I have to select another WF then go back to mine WF and only then boolean status it properly read.
If raise to wake implementation is problematic, please add support for hmApp.reloadPage(option) for watchfaces in code, so we could call it and enjoy @htoooth

hi @zdunex25

resume_call and pause_call methods do not support parameters. The watch face is loaded when it is first set. Therefore, hm.reloadPage is not useful. Do you want to reload in resume_call? This also doesn't work, as it would cause the watch face to be repeatedly loaded.

I saw redraw() as well, I just wish to have a method that will reload a watchface on button press so it could properly read boolean status.
