A couple of choices come to mind: 1. Allow the user to select two of wind speed, RH, or barometric pressure. The wind speed can actually use a good amount of screen real estate, so the pressure should be able to fit in its place if desired. If all three are desired, then there might have to be scrolling involved, but then things get complicated if there's also sports to report (which for me, there always is :-) 2. As a replacement for the forecast in the small line above the large font. As an aside, I'd rather see the forecast implemented as an entire new screen (like sports). It is now only good for the next 12-hour block; for me I'd rather see tomorrow's forecast when I'm home in the evening, rather than the forecast for "tonight" when I'll be in bed and won't care. Having "tonight and tomorrow's" forecast would be much more useful on a separate screen, and you could even design cute little icons for cloudy/sunny/rainy etc. if you have copious free time. 3. Use a smaller font for all the weather data. This would preclude reading across the room, but again this could be a choice if the user wants all the data. If the display is completely bitmapped, then maybe the clock can be in a large font and all the weather data in a smaller font. These are just some ideas; I'd be just as happy to have it among the choices when selecting what data to display, with a limitation that the user can only select "three of the following four" data elements or some similar restriction to allow the data to fit. -- mbonsack ------------------------------------------------------------------------ mbonsack's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1398 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=18398 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/plugins
