Cumulus MX 3.9.0 b3095 Questions

The Sunrise and Sunset time appear to be exchanged. Am I reading it wrong?
Also, I'm not clear on what the "null" refers to, or doesn't.

The source refers to <TT>id="Forecast"</TT>

I'm also wondering if others are seeing these scrollbars in some of the settings pages? The horizontal ones don't seems to adjust with the width of the browser window. I'm not sure the vertical ones are very useful.

I confess I updated by copying in only the changed files (after some shell wrangling to build my own list by comparing md5 signatures - the result matched the description of the changes).
Thanks-
Bob

Sunrise and Sunset are correct for me.
The null appears to be in the location that should be showing the forecast.
You could tick the Use Cumulus Forecast to check it is working. If that works then it would suggest that without the tick, the weather station forecast is not being picked up.
However I do see an anomaly on the Settings/Station settings page:-
The Low and High pressure extreme and extreme units settings appear under the
Forecast dropdown
when I would expect them to be under the
Options dropdown

The scroll bars in settings are a bug introduced in the latest Chromium update. It has been fixed in the latest Dev release but it will be some time before that filters down to the release version.
I have incorporated a workaround for it in the CSS that is in the next release

Given this I started thinking "wonder if this could be a hemisphere issue". To be succint ... I ticked East rather than West.

(I appreciate the "tip" there about Greenwich.) The times haven't changed but that may require a reload.** - Thanks for nudging me to check.

That worked. I've never wrapped my head around the data format from the station. Although the console shows a forecast, it's not clear my fine offset base transmits it.
Cheers, and Thanks!
** It occurred to me an icon, color or some flag on the settings that require a reload could be helpful. Oh, and a restart bought the sunrise/set into alignment with other sources...

You're right. Firefox doesn't have the issue!
Thanks!!
