Thanks!
I understand the GUI clutter issue ... but this control probably should be externalised so that the 10day forecast format can be easily set to match the 'current' formats ... for all of us users in 'metric'/MKS countries. Just a single switch, like for the Long Weather Forecast format, could do. In fact, you could probably use a set of global switches that would apply to all displays and simplify the Time/Weather format strings. Just a suggestion ... -- ScottoG51 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ScottoG51's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=15873 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=14327 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/plugins
