Outdoor Temperature in System Tray Icon

Post by mike_b »

I've been looking around in the settings and cannot find an option to display the outdoor temperature in the tray icon when Cumulus is minimized to the system tray. I see the tooltip with the temperature and wind data when hovering over the tray icon. Is it currently possible to display the outdoor temperature in the system tray icon?

Completely not what you want, but I have mine on all the website internet tabs :) Also, you should be able to have a widget with your data, which then may have what you want (go to the Sanday home page)

Thanks for the information guys. I added the suggestion in an enhancement request ticket.

Another WD feature added to the enhancement list, kind of ironic in light of that other thread don't ya think?

I did like the system tray temperature icon feature in Weather Display, so it is a bit ironic. However, I've personally gained more features in Cumulus than I lost in WD. And the Cumulus user interface is a pleasure to use each time I open the program.
