Unzip now.html and now.js and replace the ones under 'interface' in your Cumulus folder on your PC. I think it might look better without the degree symbols, you could change these new lines in now.js to remove them if you think so too:

Code: Select all

$('#BearingCP').html('° '+ cp[Math.floor(((parseInt(data.Bearing) + 11) / 22.5) % 16 )]);
$('#AvgbearingCP').html('° '+ cp[Math.floor(((parseInt(data.Avgbearing) + 11) / 22.5) % 16 )]);

to

Code: Select all

$('#BearingCP').html(cp[Math.floor(((parseInt(data.Bearing) + 11) / 22.5) % 16 )]);
$('#AvgbearingCP').html(cp[Math.floor(((parseInt(data.Avgbearing) + 11) / 22.5) % 16 )]);

I guess 3017 doesn't show ° at all. I see it if I hit the refresh button and only momentarily until the sign is replaced by the wind direction.

I think it would look better with it after the number which is the preferred format.

Temperature has a number, a space, the degree sign, and unit used...

12.5 °C
79.3 °F

The wind should be bearing, degree sign, space, direction...

180° S
270° W

To do this, change now.html from...

Code: Select all

                        <tr>
                            <td>Bearing</td>
                            <td><span id="Bearing">--</span></td>
                            <td><span id="BearingCP">&deg;</span></td>
                        </tr>
                        <tr>
                            <td>Average Bearing</td>
                            <td><span id="Avgbearing">--</span></td>
                            <td><span id="AvgbearingCP">&deg;</span></td>
                        </tr>

To...

Code: Select all

                        <tr>
                            <td>Bearing</td>
                            <td><span id="Bearing">--</span>°</td>
                            <td><span id="BearingCP">--</span></td>
                        </tr>
                        <tr>
                            <td>Average Bearing</td>
                            <td><span id="Avgbearing">--</span>°</td>
                            <td><span id="AvgbearingCP">--</span></td>
                        </tr>

Until I incorporated this change as standard, they were all exactly the same - the value in one column and the units in the next column. I prefer it the way it is now, the degree symbol seems superfluous to me, but of course one of the main advantages of the UI working the way it does in MX is that you can make it look exactly how you want.

I have configured this to show a degree symbol next to the number in the same column as the number, and, the cardinal letters in the next column where the degree symbol used to be.

Code: Select all

                        <tr>
                            <td>Bearing</td>
                            <td><span id="Bearing">--</span>&nbsp;&deg;</td>
                            <td><span id="BearingCP"></span></td>
                        </tr>
                        <tr>
                            <td>Average Bearing</td>
                            <td><span id="Avgbearing">--</span>&nbsp;&deg;</td>
                            <td><span id="AvgbearingCP"></span></td>
                        </tr>
