When minimized to the system tray, can you make it display .

When minimized to the system tray, can you make it display wind and/or temp? That's the only think about a competitors program that I miss. (well that an the graphing.)

Yes, this is fairly easy to do, but I'm only fixing bugs now in this version. I'll consider it for Cumulus 2.

That's the only think about a competitors program that I miss. (well that an the graphing.)

What sort of graphing would you like to see in Cumulus 2, that the current version doesn't do?

[FlexPVC]

regarding the graphing; I like the "weather energy" that is shown in one of the other ones. basically bars of each wind level and minutes of each.


And I'd like to be able to pick line color and weight. I tried the 3d look, but it's a bit too much and the standard line is a bit hard to see for me. (I'm a bit older. , but even with my glasses it's hard to see the line.)

Yes, that sounds good - I'll put that in Cumulus 2 at some point - remind me later when I forget

I tried increasing the line width soem time ago but it caused problems. In Cumulus 2 the lines are thivker to start with, and I hope to make them configurable.

In the current version you can change the colours - right click on the graphs.

I had to do a new beta for a fix anyway, and as this was a small change, I snuck it in

Rather have wind speed and direction...............

I did think about adding direction; I don't know why I didn't - I'll add it next time.

Cool, many thanks.

Steve,
any chance of a "start minimized" option? in current version or V2?

In theory this should be very easy, the component which does the 'minimize to tray' has this option. I even have a small demo which does it. But I can't get it to work in Cumulus and I don't know why.

or V2?

I'll investigate at some point. Remind me when I forget

code freeze in V1

code freeze in V1

Well, yeah, but it was only going to be a one-line change (plus standard code for allowing the option to be set)...

[dane]

Thank you for the answer.
I'll remind you - unless I forget

Quick code un-freeze request

Lookingat the suggestion above re: starting minimized to tool tray how about an option to run when Windows starts and minimize to tool tray as I always forget to run Cumulus after a reboot?

OK...OK...I know...v2 is a priority.

I have to say that those screenshots that daj has posted on the Wiki look really good.

Thanks & kind regards,

I have self-nominated myself as the code-freeze police

Don't think I didn't see your swift move --request, then flattery to Steve!

You could just add it to your startup folder and tell it to minimise
