Curious question goes here

Ok I know it is possible to load individual numbers 1 at a time and put in some tag / formula somewhere ( i dont remember off hand) and you will have the time digitally as portrayed in the link watch face My question is is there a way to do this with the date for example Saturday August 23? And if not can the date be done numerically? Or is this only possible to with with digital time? Thank you.

It is possible with every text that has a tag with known results (like numbers are from 0 to 9, months are from 1 to 12, or weather conditions have known numbering etc…)

That’s good to know it’s possible. Do you know if there is one of those “lesson” things some of you like to sometimes post that teaches you how to do it? Kind of like the ones @Tomas has. I’m not sure exactly how I would word my inquiry to make the search. I remember when I did that face. I had just stumbled on the tutorial by pure chance.

Maybe this helps:

Do you remember the thread you linked in your face description?

The principle is the same. You make your image for each month and day and set its opacity like this:
[January]
$#DM#==1?100:0$
[February]
$#DM#==2?100:0$
and so on to 12

[Sunday]
$#DOW#==0?100:0$
[Monday]
$#DOW#==1?100:0$
and so on to 6

[Date 1st]
$#Dd#==1?100:0$
[Date 2nd]
$#Dd#==2?100:0$
and so on to 31
or if you would want to split it, then do same like with hours, just instead #Db# put #Dd#

You can inspect this watchface I made a long time ago. All the text in it from the time to the date are pictures of numbers and words.
