The Creator and publishing process are becoming increasingly difficult to work with. Ticket #190505
Sometimes publishing crashes the Creator completely. Other times, the watch face appears in the store and I receive the publication email, but later it somehow disappears again. I have also noticed issues with fonts not displaying correctly, layers missing from the publishing preview, and other inconsistencies.
Has anyone else experienced similar issues, or found any useful workarounds or tips?
Yes, Support is aware and has been working on it. I don’t expect a fix until after the big holiday weekend (or later).
It’s something different and something new every time. So many tickets have already been submitted. ‘It’s being worked on,’ and just when you think okay, it’s working again… the next problem pops up. That really kills the fun!
Thank you, and yes, I know it’s a big holiday weekend in the US, so I’ll try not to panic too loudly. 
Publishing has completely stopped working for me today.
Exactly. Hopefully it gets smoother soon, because creating is a lot more fun when publishing behaves.
More like when the whole system behaves and quits messing with it
Exactly. I’m staying in my creator zen bubble and hoping the system eventually finds inner peace too.
The zen method worked, it’s possible to publish again. Thanks people who solved this on a free holiday weekend!
Happy 4th of July!
