Forecast next days

Watchface Design Expression Help
1

I’m trying to make a expression that I can get the next forecast days. For example: Today is Friday, then I want to show Saturday, Sunday, Monday… if today was monday, shows tuesday, wednesday… all dinamically

I use this expression
$#DOWB#==2?Mon:$#DOWB#==3?Tue:$#DOWB#==4?Wed:$#DOWB#==5?Thu:$#DOWB#==6?Fri:$#DOWB#==7?Sat:$#DOWB#==1?Sun:$

So I got two troubles:

  • First, the results “Tue”, “Thu” and “Sat”, simply doesn’t show.
  • Second and more serious, in some watches or in the app phone, this expression shows like a text

Someone have a suggestion that how can I solve it??
So many thanks since now

The expression begins and ends with a $, so you should have 7 seperate expressions:
$#DOWB#==2?Mon:$$#DOWB#==3?Tue:$$#DOWB#==4?Wed:$$#DOWB#==5?Thu:$$#DOWB#==6?Fri:$$#DOWB#==7?Sat:$$#DOWB#==1?Sun:$

However, I think the empty value for false does not work on all watches.
Probably safest (but more work) would be having 7 layers with opacity 0 or 100 based on the day you need.

Something like this?

Each of the columns have the following formulas in the text field:

1st column (today)
$#DOW#=3?WED:$$#DOW#=4?THU:$$#DOW#=5?FRI:$$#DOW#=6?SAT:$$#DOW#=0?SUN:$$#DOW#=1?MON:$$#DOW#=2?TUE:$

2nd column (tomorrow)
$#DOW#=2?WED:$$#DOW#=3?THU:$$#DOW#=4?FRI:$$#DOW#=5?SAT:$$#DOW#=6?SUN:$$#DOW#=0?MON:$$#DOW#=1?TUE:$

3rd (etc)
$#DOW#=1?WED:$$#DOW#=2?THU:$$#DOW#=3?FRI:$$#DOW#=4?SAT:$$#DOW#=5?SUN:$$#DOW#=6?MON:$$#DOW#=0?TUE:$

4th (etc)
$#DOW#=0?WED:$$#DOW#=1?THU:$$#DOW#=2?FRI:$$#DOW#=3?SAT:$$#DOW#=4?SUN:$$#DOW#=5?MON:$$#DOW#=6?TUE:$

5th (etc)
$#DOW#=6?WED:$$#DOW#=0?THU:$$#DOW#=1?FRI:$$#DOW#=2?SAT:$$#DOW#=3?SUN:$$#DOW#=4?MON:$$#DOW#=5?TUE:$

Keep in mind to separate them with double $$… the single is for starting and finishing the formula.

Also note that it will be an English only face (no localisation)…

Fine! I’ll look to it… probably the empty value is because I isn’t put the double $

6

Great! I’ll testing this formula, I did so close that you make here… but I’ll test
Many thanks!

Yes… Unfortunately I didn’t see another way to do this… I guess that isn’t to have another way yet

No other way at present… :frowning_face:

Waiting for the suggestions in the threads below (2019-03) to be implemented…
