If it does change after other reboots I will let this thread know

ok rebooted and it still works as it should.
I ran this script a few days back to clear and reset icons.
Maybe it will work for you..

strange. We had 2 blackouts tonight causing PC to reboot and each time the tray icons came back in the taskbar as they should after reboot.
I haven't tested it with a normal reboot as yet though as my pc is never shut down

Medium version attached. Slightly smaller font size meant that there was no need to have to align them vertically so they are all uniform and a lot tidier.

I had a thought to make them different colors depending on the temp eg red over say 30, orange from 30 to 20 then blue from 20 down to -20 or whatever but then thought it may not be readable on some taskbars.
But if they were done in a reversed colored box with white text and changing bg color that would work.
An idea. But I'm not capable of doing the box version..lol
Maybe I can inspire someone else?

yep use them at your will.
Bugger re charges, figured that may be the case.
Oh well I still love the program and it's the best I have found as I wanted one so I could see the image with weather as in sun or cloud and yours does all that very nicely, thanks.

I noticed that sometimes the weather has not been updated for 2 hrs or more. This is prob the supplier. You mentioned you were thinking of changing to another weather supplier in a thread I read?
It would be great if you could have an option to choose providers, say 5 options in different locals eg one closer to Aust would be great such as Bom (http://www.bom.gov.a...asts/melbourne.shtml) which is the most accurate for Aust.

Just an idea that has prob been suggested before..

haha im gunna have a go.
How do I get the numbers to be same centred position for each number especially when you have a minus symbol?
I'm just adding numbers as text straight from the keyboard rather than paint each one..will that work?

Greatly appreciated!
Is there anywhere else I can find more?
What would I search for?
Tried lots including "weather tray temperature numeral font image set" with no joy.
Thanks again

I see now after reboot same issue.
I don't reboot very often so hadn't noticed that.

unfortunately the temperature numbers in system tray are just that little bit too small. I checked the images folder and see that there IS room to have slightly bigger numbers as images.
Does anyone know where I can find another more readable set?
I searched to no avail.

Appreciated.

Hi Skwire.

I just installed the latest version of sWeather in a fresh virtual Windows 7 machine. The same behavior is exhibited there. The Condition tray icon doesn't retain it's 'Show icon and Notifications' setting. The temperature icon sticks just fine.

I hope this is fixable I'm not sure if this is any incentive for you, but I'm willing to donate a decent amount

I am running Win 7 64bit and do not have this issue.
Both icons STAY showing in tray for me.
