Rombra - Roman Umbra

For the second week of the developer contest, I made Rombra. While it wasn’t selected by the devs or hearted enough to win a PR2, it did receive 32 hearts, made it onto the wrists of real people, and has what I consider a unique design.

Since the contest ended, there have been a number of improvements and additional functionality: 5-min ticks, timeline peek support, 24-hr mode, RGB backlight (untested), and top-of-hour vibration offsets.

To implement the next feature (check out the issues on GitHub), it needs a settings page that is more complex than what Clay can provide, to schedule theme/color changes throughout the day (maybe red at night, etc?). So the next hurdle is a custom settings page.

What else would you like to see on this watchface? I was thinking day-of-month and battery level (in Roman numerals, ofc) on tap/wrist flick, and there is one person in the GitHub issues that is asking for Arabic numerals.

I did end up implementing scheduled color changes.
Made a few Custom Components in Clay to make in-line toggles, drop-downs, and color pickers.
Up to 10 scheduled color change entries can be enabled, and they happen each day at their respective times. Really good for changing things to red at night, or to have different colors correspond to break periods during the workday.

Still working on Arabic numerals. That will involve a re-working of how the shadows are drawn.
