Line art step counter widget
A line art step counter widget shows today's steps against your goal. Everything drawn with thin outlines and no fills. This page gives the exact colors, type settings and layers, with a preview drawn from the same values.
What a line art step counter widget shows
A step widget shows one number and how close it is to a goal. A ring on one side and the count on the other reads well at a glance.
Steps come from Health Connect, which needs a compatible phone, your permission and a fitness connection (a Pro feature in WidgetCraft). The numbers are whatever your phone or watch has recorded; the widget does not count steps itself.
How the line art style shapes it
Line art widgets are transparent with a thin outline, so the wallpaper shows through. Rings, bars and frames are single strokes, which looks light and elegant on photo wallpapers.
- Bars and rings: Draw rings and bars as 2 point strokes; show progress with a brighter stroke.
- Numbers: Use a thin weight for numbers so they match the strokes.
