when using the ten-day view and running the mouse pointer over the lower row to see the temperature conversions you get the days and conversions for the row above (i.e. the first five days) and when doing the same for the upper row, you get nothing at all.

Bug!  Will fix.  Thank you for the report.

Couldn't say...the weather conditions over the past week have been a bit like the movie groundhog day...sunny and HOT (repeat again tomorrow).  So I wouldn't expect the other icon to change.  Is there a log or something that can be used to check if updates are occurring without the icon update?

-dshoup (July 10, 2013, 07:24 AM)

No, there's no log.  However, the temperature tray icon is created using a third-party library since AutoHotkey, on its own, only allows for one tray icon.  Even if your weather conditions don't change during the day, the icon should change at night to a "moon" type of icon.

Let me know if you would like any additional information for debugging purposes if/when you get around to looking at Win8 compatibility.

-dshoup (July 09, 2013, 02:13 PM)

Hmmm...are both icons not changing or just the temperature one?

Wow, very useful!
Do you have any plans to open-source this? Then I could modify it to work with 15 minute increments somehow.

-relipse (July 08, 2013, 10:49 AM)

I don't have plans to open source Anuran.  However, you can set it up to fire the popup every fifteen minutes.

In fact I could pop it up at ever 15 minute interval, 10:00-10:15, 10:15-10:30, 10:30-10:45
forcing me to enter what I did for the last 15 minutes

I just installed sWeather...really nice program!

-dshoup (July 05, 2013, 02:18 PM)

Thank you, dshoup, and welcome to the DonationCoder website.

I am, however, having a problem...the system tray icon does not seem to update automatically.  I have it set to update every 15 minutes, but it does not update even after 4-6 hours.  If I open the program and manually refresh, everything works perfectly.  I just can't seem to figure out how to get it to do this on its own.  FYI, I'm running Windows 8 64-bit, I do not use a proxy server, and I have sWeather 1.4.3 build 5 (Unicode build) "installed" in my documents folder with a single location (in the United States).  Any suggestions on what I'm doing wrong?

-dshoup (July 05, 2013, 02:18 PM)

sWeather hasn't been tested on Windows 8 so that could be a/the problem.  However, on a hunch, change the tray temperature theme to something other than "Default" and let me know if that solves the issue.  Also, are you using a laptop (or sleep/hibernation mode)?

I would like to know if you could make it possible to specify the caption font in the options.

-migounanounet (July 05, 2013, 10:50 AM)

Thank you for your kind words.  As for the font request, did you mean the font used when entering a note in the popup window?

I guess it requires a program restart before that takes effect. I didn't expect that or I would have done that before now!

-J-Mac (June 22, 2013, 12:18 PM)

Well, it shouldn't require a restart...that's the problem.  I'll do some more testing.  Which OS are you running?

Would you mind configuring a few more locations and see if the temperature icon updates when switching between the locations?

Yes, absolutely, it should.  Does it change if you switch locations?

N.A.N.Y. 2011 / Re: Run/Execute Cell Data

« Last post by skwire on June 17, 2013, 10:11 AM »

Hi, abalmahmood, and welcome to the DonationCoder site.  The Run/Execute function will attempt to "run" whatever is in the cell.  Basically, it would be like pasting the contents of the cell into the standard Windows Run prompt and pressing Enter.  So, you can use it for things like:

A file or folder e.g.: c:\path\to\my.exe, c:\path\to\image.png
A URI/URL with "://" in it e.g. http://www.site.com
'mailto:' links e.g. mailto:[email protected]

Does that make sense?
