Hello, all.
I have been running Cumulus on a Davis VP2 for a while and I'm currently integrating the Cumulus uploads into an existing website. The forum and wiki have helped me with all the questions I've had so far.
Using the Trends graphs, the display of thumbnails is correct apart form two. One has a grey background and one an almost pixellated background.(See Image)

Can anyone give me any pointers as to what I've done to cause this!

Thank you

The wind direction background is a known problem with the chart component when a white background is used. A work around is to use a gradient background with all 3 colours set to white.

I don't know why the rain rate background is grey, it may be a related problem. Try the gradient fix and restart Cumulus, and see if that's fixed too.

Many thanks, Steve, that sorted it. I wasn't aware of that, and with hindsight should've tried the gradient solution.
