Thank you so much for the release. As expected I have made an error somewhere in the re-install! I only get a very basic page when I load my data. I have attached a picture as an example. The data is briefly shown but that is only down the LH side of the screen and then is covered by what you see in the image.

I am sure it is a school boy error but where?

Thanks

Jon

[JonFear]

Is there a simple way of installing what you have generated or should I wait until the release?

Please be patient and wait until the next release, it will arrive before April ;)

Oh OK Then! I will sit on my hands until you say so! TBF I have to change one of the camera's which have failed. It is up a mast and it is pretty windy here today!

As an aside, I seem to have picked up an additional "Forecast &" in the Forecast and Radar title bar. I cannot see where from. It is there whether I put the title in the skin or weewx.conf files...

Did you accidentally set this in skin.conf under [Extras]radar_heading?

No. Just been through all the locations and cannot see it. I am sure it must be where I have "hacked" some code. It will disappear when I do the next install...

Regarding the extra "Forecast &" I have. I think I know where it is coming from but do not know how to fix it. The additional test "Forecast provided by Open Weather Maps and Live Radar provided by Windy.com" is added to the radar title in the skin.conf file for now. When this is disabled I get the standard "Forecast & Radar". My guess is that somewhere the two text boxes or whatever they are called are not lined up...

Thoughts?

Jon

[Daveiano]

The current logic is the following:

"Forecast" is shown as heading if the user has a forecast extension enabled (by default, no way to change). If the user has a radar/webcam enabled then the "&" and "Radar" or the value radar_heading from skin.conf is shown.

There is currently no way to achieve a heading like "Forecast provided by Open Weather Maps and Live Radar provided by Windy.com". The best you could do would be to set radar_heading to "provided by Open Weather Maps and Live Radar provided by Windy.com" but then you would end up with

"Forecast & provided by Open Weather Maps and Live Radar provided by Windy.com"

I think the current implementation is kind of a result of overthinking I guess. It would be best to let the user set the complete heading and not print static "Forecast" and "&".

I hope that makes sense now, and like I said:

It would be best to let the user set the complete heading and not print static "Forecast" and "&".

Any thoughts?

[JonFear]

Hi Dave

Ah As I suspected! If it is easy enough to allow the user to set the complete heading then I would say that is the way to go. I guess that updating the excellent wiki is more work than changing the code...

[Daveiano]

Yeah, I think so too.

I will release a new version within the next few days to include this change and the previous fixes. Thanks for the feedback!
