Couple of feature questions

From build 3044 the development baton passed to Mark Crossley. Mark has been responsible for all the Builds since. He has made the code available on GitHub. It is Mark's hope that others will join in this development, but at the very least he welcomes your ideas for future developments (see Cumulus MX Development suggestions).

Couple of feature questions

Post by prodata »

Anyone able to help please with a couple of CMX feature questions. Sorry, I'm sure the answers are on the forum or wiki already, but short of time tonight:

1. Trying to help someone who wants both current wx readings AND a trend graph for wind speed and direction on a single web page (ie without going through menus). I'm guessing this must be possible, but maybe not out of the box? Are there any example URLs that anyone could suggest please?

2. Further to [1]. I suppose there's no gauge that shows the trend in wind direction? ie circumference would still be direction but radial axis would be time, with the oldest reading on the outside maybe?

ad 1) maybe CumulusUtils could be of help here. It has standard thw wx readings on the left and chartss on the right. It needs to be configured and runs daily. It is a compagnion to CMX. Example: see signature.

ad 2) no idea, seems bespoke software to me.
