This is the final blog in a series to introduce the sample application Workout, a Tizen example for monitoring health sensors on a wearable device.
The first blog, Workout -- A Tizen Sample App for Monitoring Health Sensors, presented the basic features of the application. The second blog, Adding Distance Traveled to the Tizen Workout Sample App, described how distance traveled is calculated. The third blog, Adding Heart Rate Summary to the Tizen Workout App, demonstrated how heart rate data is gathered.
This blog describes how the application uses the Tizen.Wearable.CircularUI extension of the Xamarin.Forms framework. This extension provides a set of components customized for the wearable profile that makes development easier and efficient. It provides, among others, a CircleListView component, which is used on the summary view of the application. The list contains elements that differ from each other in terms of appearance. Apart from the different contents of the text, they allow you to:
Use different icon images
Set different positions of text elements on selected elements
Use converters for selected list items
Display the action button on selected elements of the list
Time
Distance
Pace
Intensity
ItemSource
The information about how the individual elements of the list should look like is provided by ItemSource, which is represented by the list of elements of the DetailsItemData class.
Views/Workout/DetailsPageView.xaml

ItemTemplate
The values provided by ItemSource are used in ItemTemplate.
Views/Workout/DetailsPageView.xaml
<cui:CircleListView.ItemTemplate>
<DataTemplate>
<ViewCell>
<AbsoluteLayout HeightRequest="360"
HorizontalOptions="FillAndExpand"
VerticalOptions="FillAndExpand">
<Image AbsoluteLayout.LayoutFlags="XProportional"
AbsoluteLayout.LayoutBounds=".5, 74, AutoSize, AutoSize">
<Image.Source>
<FileImageSource File="{Binding Icon}" />
</Image.Source>
</Image>
<Label Text="{Binding Value}"
FontSize="{StaticResource FontSizeM}"
TextColor="#FFF"
AbsoluteLayout.LayoutFlags="XProportional"
AbsoluteLayout.LayoutBounds="{Binding ValueBounds}">
</Label>
<Label Text="{Binding Name}"
FontSize="{StaticResource FontSizeXXS}"
FontAttributes="Bold"
TextColor="#AAFFCC"
AbsoluteLayout.LayoutFlags="XProportional"
AbsoluteLayout.LayoutBounds="{Binding NameBounds}">
</Label>
<Button AbsoluteLayout.LayoutFlags="All"
AbsoluteLayout.LayoutBounds="0, 1, 1, .25"
Text="OK"
TextColor="#1B1B7D"
BackgroundColor="#AAFFCC"
Command="{Binding BindingContext.FinishCommand, Source={x:Reference listView}}"
IsVisible="{Binding IsActionButtonVisible}"
tizen:VisualElement.Style="bottom" />
</AbsoluteLayout>
</ViewCell>
</DataTemplate>
</cui:CircleListView.ItemTemplate>
The values modify the content in each ViewCell element accordingly, so that:
The Name and Value properties set the values of the Text property of the selected Label elements
The NameBounds and ValueBounds properties set the LayoutBounds property of absolutely positioned Label elements
The Icon property sets the Source property of the Image elements responsible for displaying the item icon
The IsActionButtonVisible property sets the IsVisible property of Button elements, making them visible when the given value is True
