Pebble SDK 3.6-dp5 - Changelog 2015-10-02

This changelog covers only changes since 3.6-dp2. Developer previews 3 and 4 were never shipped.

Changes to Firmware

  • Made the status bar on Chalk (Pebble Time Round) four pixels taller (from 20 to 24 pixels).
  • Resolved an issue causing AppMessages to sometimes be dropped when sending both ways.
  • Improved backlight behaviour when dictating text.
  • Fixed a calculation error in grect_centered_from_polar.
  • Resolved multiple issues that occured when reusing a DictationSession.

Changes to SDK

  • Added the GTextAttributes structure, with methods for defining text flow and paging on a circular display.
  • Added support for GTextAttributes to graphics_draw_text. That NULL parameter that you've been tacking on the end for two and a half years now actually does something.
  • Added methods to TextLayer for flowing and paging text on a circular display.
  • Added paging support to ScrollLayer.
  • Improved the return codes from the dictation API.

Changes to Pebble Tool

Changes to Emulator/Phonesim

  • Added a translucent ring around the inside of the emulator to remind you of masked pixels.
  • Resolved an issue causing appmessage events to fire repeatedly.
  • Resolved an issue causing app installs to frequently fail on Linux.
  • Resolved an issue causing emulated Bluetooth to be broadly unreliable.
