Manually change the temperature and translation

Post by Oznog »

I,

Firstly, I like Cumulus (strong and stable), new on this forum, new Cumulus user and ...french. So, a little compassion please and sorry for ma poor english ; -)

Otherwise, I'm a good webmaster, so if I can help someone, do not hesitate!

1. Here my first question :

My station dont give outdoor temperature (flat battery) but I have a beautiful outdoor mercury thermometer still functional, tx good!

So, How can I tell Cumulus some « Today's » manually value (like rain?) ?

2. I tried to translated the software with « strings.ini » unsuccessfully. I have got just some word but all detail is still in english.

« strings.ini » are in the same folder of « cumulus.exe ».

I see that other french user dont translate all file, but just some.

Thank you very much.

For temperature, you'll have to edit the log files manually. The formats are in the help and the wiki. For today's rain you can use the 'today's rain' editor - on the edit menu.

Which items are you changing in strings.ini which aren't working?

I translate all the file :

Forecast, MoonPhases, Beaufort, Trends, Compass, Graphs, ExtraSensorCaptions...

But I see just the Forecast (at the top of the screen), graph view and Compass graph (at the right).

I whant to translate all item on this screenshot.

Tx.

You can only change the strings that are in strings.ini. Cumulus was never intended to be multi-lingual, and it's not possible to change it now.
