Steve, I like the new gauge with the animation but if I could point a finger at a problem with the new wind gauge looks I would say it is a bit fuzzy, or that is, it is lacking sharp edges. Even if this is not changeable or I am alone in my opinion, and it doesn't need changing , I like the new gauge.

I really like the clock colors you posted.

That's exactly why the 8-point option is there, for Fine Offset stations. See the help for that setting.

I don't think it's changeable; I think it's designed that way, using anti-aliasing. I think it probably looks different depending on the PC it's running on.

I like the new gauge in build 955, far more interesting to watch too!

Build 955 also seems to have fixed a problem I have always had with Cumulus - using the menus took ages as I had to wait (and wait...) for the menu to respond to the mouse moving up and down over the separate items. This doesn't happen anymore :D
Maybe something to do with 'Moved realtime FTP into separate thread' ?
