WorldWeather plugin v1.10.0 for MediaPortal 1.3.0 and higher (6 Viewers)

[rsbrux]

Hi weather freaks,
as promised here the xmls for the Default and PureVision skins (including the 4x3 versions).
Changes:

• New order of buttons (change view is now second button)
• Complete list of satellite images including humidity and selfdefined
• New visibilities of buttons in the different screens

Wow, that was quick! The images look much better now, thanks.
There are still a few points which might be improved:

1. I miss the "Location" button that used to be on the "Images" page. Now if I am already on images and want to change the location, I have to back out to the "Condition" page to do so.
2. This is really minor, but some wide images, like the Suntime and Temperature images I have for Swiss locations, are still getting clipped at the right edge of the skin. Is it possible to scale them?
3. If I don't specify a satellite image (e.g. for Amsterdam in the attached config file), the "Images" page displays no image at all when entered. Why not just put the "Self-defined" image first? That way users can decide for themselves which image to display by default, without breaking the labeling or having to hand-edit the skin file(s).

I have attached my config file in hope of making it easier for you to see what I mean.
Many thanks for your great skinning work!

Hi rsbrux, I had to disable the location and actualize buttons in images to have space for all the image buttons.
The images are scaled with keeping the aspect ratio, so don´t know why they are cropped.
Maybe I change the first image to selfdefined

Hi.
@Number One... LCARS Skin files on the way?

 

[catavolt]

They are already in latest LCARS v 5.2

Hi.
I thought they are for 48. BTW there is a little glitch. See screenshot

Claus, if you are using full HD resolution, then you will encounter a bug in skin engine not positioning grouped items correctly. The team is working on that.
To override, just comment out the separator lines groups.

Hello!
Is this a plugin bug or a skin engine bug? (see screenshot)


I tried to skin the hourly forecast view but not all things were displayed correctly. I can't add more than two days to atmosphere row 3 else every text item won't show up anymore (only for one sec after a refresh) and you only see the condition icons + dividers. It will kinda look like in this screenshot from post 882. -> https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/attachments/19-57-03-png.100006/

I tried it with and without grouped items (stacklayout). Same result. The reason why I think it could be a plugin bug is that v048 and v0.49 behaved differently in my opinion. In v.48 I can't even get the wind row 3 to show up which works fine now (v0.49)...

Thanks!

First of all, I am running version 0.45 of the plugin. Last weekend, we in the US switched to daylight savings time. Now, my sunrise and sunset times are off by two hours. Looks like one hour was added instead of subtracted. Currently, it says sunrise is at 9:30 and sunset is 9:15. Of course, they should be 7:30 and 7:15.

Sorry if this has already been reported or fixed, but I could not find any mention of this anomaly. And Thanks for an awesome plugin that only keeps getting better.

Hello!
I think your problem is fixed since v0.47. =)
See: https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/...l-v1-2-0-or-higher.102775/page-84#post-846521

• changes to basic sunset/sunrise calculation

Just installed the plugin - and it works really well well done!

Just a small issue - it looks like the plugin overwrites the menu options in MP TV Server - something's gone wrong here?

ANy ideas?
