AnalogClock

Watch Face Format version Version 4 Version 3 Version 2 Version 1

---

An analog clock is a container for AnalogHands inner elements, which display a series of clock hands that rotate around a watch face.

Introduced in Wear OS 4.

Syntax

<AnalogClock x="integer" y="integer" width="integer" height="integer"
             pivotX="float" pivotY="float" angle="float-degrees" alpha="integer"
             scaleX="float" scaleY="float"
             renderMode="[SOURCE | MASK | ALL]"
             tintColor="argb-color | rgb-color">
    <!-- This is the maximum number of hands that you can define. -->
    <HourHand ... />
    <HourHand ... />
    <MinuteHand ... />
    <MinuteHand ... />
    <SecondHand ... />
    <SecondHand ... />
</AnalogClock>

Attributes

The AnalogClock element has the following attributes:

Required attributes

The following attributes are required:

x, y, width, height

A collection of integers that specify the element's size and position.

Optional attributes

The following attributes are optional:

pivotX, pivotY

A two-dimensional pivot point about which the element rotates. Both values are floating-point numbers that are scaled to fit in the range $ [0, 1] $.

angle

A number of degrees, clockwise, that the element should be rotated about its pivot point.

alpha

Set the level of transparency that this element should have. A value of 0 indicates that the element should be completely transparent. A value of 255 indicates that the element should be completely opaque.

scaleX

The horizontal scaling factor to apply to this element.

scaleY

The vertical scaling factor to apply to this element.

renderMode

The element's render mode type. Possible values are: SOURCE (default), MASK, or ALL.

tintColor

Apply a tint color filter to the element. You must specify the color using either the ARGB format (#ff000000 = opaque black) or the RGB format (#000000 = black).

Inner elements

The AnalogClock element can contain the following inner elements:

HourHand

MinuteHand

SecondHand

Elements that represent the hour, minute, and second hands, respectively, that rotate around the watch face. AnalogClock can contain at most 2 hour hands, 2 minute hands, and 2 second hands.

Localization

Provides a hint for the locale to use when rendering the time. More information is available in the Localization reference.

An AnalogClock element can contain at most one Localization element.

Variant

Allows for changing attributes of this element when the Wear OS device is in ambient mode. More information is available in the Variant reference.
