Hi Magnus, there is a recent topic about this.

Hello Freddie, I been looking in that topic, but ....

This lines is in my interface/js

125 cloudbasevalue: inp.Cloudbase,
126 cloudbaseunit: inp.CloudbaseUnit,

I cant see any difference from what Mr mcrossley wrote in viewtopic.php?p=134136#p134136

cloudbasevalue: inp.Cloudbase,
cloudbaseunit: inp.CloudbaseUnit,

What is your CloudBaseInFeet set to in Cumulus.ini?

[MagnusGallstad]

CloudBaseInFeet=1

I can see in my old cumulus 1 ini file that this value is set to 0

But where in cumulus MX interface is it possible to change this ? , or is it only possible ti edit ini file ?

[freddie]

I think only in the .ini file. Make sure MX is stopped before editing.

It's an odd one that, I've just looked at the code, it can only be set in the ini file, and defaults to feet for everyone.

A quick change I could make is to make it default to the same as the Altitude setting, which gives the choice of feet or metres. You would still be able to override it in the ini file, but it would make sense to at least make a guess at the correct default.

Scrap that, not do-able. It would have to be a setting in the interface.
