Disconnected
Metric Unit System
Imperial Unit System

Usage

If creating the distance home widget through code it can be added using the convenience method:

- (void)installInViewController:(nullable UIViewController *)viewController

which adds the widget the method is called on, as a subview of the ViewController, that is passed in as an argument. Following this, add constraints to the widget using its widgetSizeHint property to determine width, height and aspect ratio constraints.

If creating the widget through storyboard use the object library to drag a container view controller into the desired view controller like so:

Following this make sure to change the class of the child view controller to be DUXBetaDistanceHomeWidget. From here you can create the constraints on the container view using the Telemetry Panel Widget's widgetSizeHint property.
