How can I put an icon in the top left label and make fullscreen? Apple allocates some space on top for the digital clock and back label. I would like to customize it, but I can't find anything in the SDK to enable this.
The top strip of the Watch screen is reserved for displaying the page title, or occasionally links such as "Cancel" by default for modal views, and the clock. It is not possible to hide this.
It is possible to set an empty title for a page. Some settings will alsoplace a background image behind this text (if you set the mode to 'Aspect Fill', at least in the current Xcode 6.2 beta 3). However, the portion of the image at the top of the screen is simply occluded by a black strip, so this does not achieve what you want.
Additionally, Apple have specifically recommended against displaying logos on the Apple Watch screen, with the rationale that the screen is too small to display for the user anything but actual content.
To set the Global tint:
Select the Interface Controller itself in Interface Builder by clicking on the Yellow circle at the top of the view of the screen.
Press Cmd-Opt-1 to display the File Inspector section of the Utilites on the right hand side.
Set the 'Global Tint' option in the section 'Interface Builder Document', as per the screenshot.
Not possible in the first cut but I think it will come later.
It's not actually a back label. The text in the top left of the Watch screen is the title of the current WKInterfaceController. You can change it by using -[WKInterfaceTitle setTitle:], but you are limited to content that is expressible in an NSString (so no UIImages).
It is possible to customise the status bar in watchOS 4.
Select your interface controller in the storyboard
Open the attributes inspector
Check the Full Screen checkbox
After doing this you can add your custom image to the left of the statusbar.

I've added the "Launch program" checkbox on the final card of the installer, but for some reason WiX is placing the checkbox below the custom bitmap instead of on top of it with the other text. Can someone point me in the right direction to getting the checkbox directly below the other text instead of below the background image?
I followed the tutorial on this page to add the checkbox: https://wixtoolset.org/documentation/manual/v3/howtos/ui_and_localization/run_program_after_install.html
I came across this page on the WiX toolset docs. Basically, it says that the checkbox with the grey background is a common complaint and there's a workaround mentioned, but not a way to remove the background.
And a common complaint: no, the checkbox can't have a transparent background. If you have a bitmap in the background, it will be ugly, just like in our example above. The only workaround is to reduce the width of the checkbox to the actual box itself and to place an additional static text (these can be made transparent) adjacent to it.
EDIT (for completeness): It looks like my initial guess on what was going on with the bitmap image wasn't accurate, based on the above-quoted page. Closing this as answered.
Summary: I'm having a big problem with layout design in my project... I want to set it up in fullscreen mode, but I can only set it in a specify resolution, because of that, when I click to maximize my program, it goes like image #2... I tried to anchor buttons in "Top,Left,Bottom,Right" but the mess is bigger (image #3).
What I need: I want to make a single layout for a fullscreen mode in any screen resolution...

When I use fill mode...
If I understand right and you want everything to stretch when you resize your form then you should dock your tablelayoutpanel (fill) and the same with your buttons.
I don't want to hide time, but want to use full screen
In the storyboard on the interface controller settings I set the checkbox "Full Screen" and "Fixed to screen edges" to ON.
In the storyboard I can see the full screen mode is working and the WKInterfaceGroup is scaled to the entire display.
But unfortunately on the watch device/simulator it does not work.
The group has alignment center/center OR center/top and width and height are set to "Relative to Container"
How can I really use the full screen mode?.
I just have to add a label equal to Time in top black space. I want to show some text here. I have seen this in some other apps, They are using this space. Even in Apple design guide lines docs, they use this space. I am adding these reference screenshots also.
In above pictures, you can see they used this top space for titles. I also want to add a label to show some text equal to time.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
This is a really weird bug. After digging around I've found a way to fill the whole screen. It's not pretty but I'm consistently getting full screen if i'm adding a sprite kit scene into a "main group". Again; it's not an elegant fix but it works and isn't really that resource intensive. Hope this works for you too!

How do I increase the size of the "SEARCH" text font?
I attached a screen shot image with a blue circle showing where the "search" text is.

Thank you
Depending on your theme, you may be able to make this change by navigating to Storefront > My Theme in your back office.
However, it's likely that the font size for that one component is the same for the rest of them; in that case, you may have to make manual changes to the CSS stylesheets by editing your theme files.
I'm building my first Universal Windows Platform (UWP) App and am trying to implement the popular "Hamburger Menu" using the SplitView class.
Inspired by many samples, the items hosted on the SplitView pane are re-styled RadioButton controls, with a vertical highlight-rectangle, an icon and a text. The appearance is similar to that of the Groove app.
I'm now trying to implement navigation and selection using the keyboard, and this now bring a little focus-rect around the items in the SplitView pane. However, since the pane clips its contents when its DisplayMode is either CompactInline or CompactOverlay, the focus rectangle is also clipped, which is not the behavior a user would expect.
Please, can anyone advise on how to property display the focus rectangle in this situation ?
Just an idea, what if you set the width of all radio button's to be same as the CompactPaneLength property of SplitView. The default is 48 DIPs.
