[MOD] Different skin layout for WorldWeather plugin (New update 18/05/2012) (1 Viewer)

[Marduk65]

I've done a different layout for WorldWeather plugin and I am pleased to share it with all the community.

This layout is inspired to Mediastream Redux weather page for XBMC.

Below you can find screenshots of Condition view and GeoClock view (Satellite view remain the same that actual default one)

Into the zip file there is a version with static labels localized for Italian users (directory "StreamedMP_files (Ita)") and a version with static labels in English (directory "StreamedMP_files (Eng)").

I hope someone like it.

[updated on 07/01/2012 for fully compatibility with last 0.3.5 final release of WW plugin (see this post -> https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/830045-post63.html)]

The look is same like in the picture one post above this one. But no more hardcoded labels. Works for all languages now, small corrections in zooming while opening/closing the window.

Edit: Fixed background image matches current condition.

Does anyone know what the correct id for High and Low is? There is a few of them in the mediaportal translation file.

Official Skin Files
Also can some people help test the skin files attached below, as this is now what will be included in StreamedMP package. Please ensure you are using the latest WorldWeather.

max - 746
min - 747

These ids are fitting for the three languages I know.

In the old weather skin file (myweather.xml) MAX and MIN are hardcoded.

What would people prefer? Max / Min hard coded or High/Low translations (these look pretty long in some languages)? or something else?

Re: [MOD] Different skin layout for WorldWeather plugin

So far no one has complained about the hardcoded max / min labels. So let it hardcoded.

In the plugin are included labels for current and future condition. Be sure you have the latest version. Latest Version

Re: [MOD] Different skin layout for WorldWeather plugin

...Wow, I am very happy that my mod can be used as main weather default for this skin, so I have made a little update for actual condition screen, with different graphic frames, that in my opinion looks a little bit better (see screenshot below).
In this new layout I've removed the static label for Forecast, so no needs to wait for it in the next revision of WorldWeather plugin.
I've also modified the size and positions of labels for actual condition details data to best fit other languages than Italian (I hope this can avoid truncated strings for German language as per fischy667's screenshot above).

Thank You very much
