Is there a start minimized option somewhere?

Check out the latest version.   :)

The control showing the location on the main dialog appears not to be high enough, at least when I enter the city name "Ã…rhus", the small circle above the 'A' is not showing.

I think this is a limitation of Yahoo! Weather since they don't have the circle on the full forecast page either.

    + Added "Start minimized" option.  (Thanks, Jibz)

v1.0.4 - 2011-03-14
    + Added an expanded view that shows all of your locations' data in a
      listview.  You can access this via the Options menu, the table button on
      the main form or the F2 hotkey.  Double-clicking a row in the listview
      will launch the full forecast for that location.
    + Added Options button on the main dialog.


Expanded view sample:

There is an old compression program called Iceows that may be close to what you're after:  http://www.iceows.com/Hardcopy.htm

I used to use it back in the Win95/98 days so I have no idea if it works well with XP/V/7.

v1.0.3 - 2011-03-10
    ! Locations would be gone if you closed out the Options dialog using the
      close button.  Trying to get back into Options at that point would result
      in an error.  (Thanks, lanux128 & worstje)

I think what you're needing is an audio editor and not an audio player.  Audacity should be able to handle your needs though I'm sure some of the more audio-engineer types may have better suggestions.  =]

No offence but frankly, if it caused 50% of the cars currently on the UK roads to not be on the road, that would be a Good Thing.   :Thmbsup:


How would it be a good thing?
-Stephen66515 (March 10, 2011, 12:43 PM)

Maybe he was making a joke regarding UK drivers as bad drivers and having half of them off the road would be a good thing?   :P

I hear ya -- sounds like at the minimum, we need to keep a lean and mean version of dcuhelper that doesnt include any new options.

Agreed.  I have no intention or desire to add license keys to any of my apps.

I wonder why my installation of sWeather shows two tray icons? Is there a way to get just one? [Installed on a Vista PC.]
-Pattern-chaser (March 09, 2011, 05:41 AM)

It should show two icons; one for the current conditions and one for the current temperature.  You can disable the temperature icon in the Options dialog.

You are correct. I use a few portable browsers, none set as a default.

I'll change the code so, at least, it doesn't error anymore.  However, that's still not going to make it work for you.

@offie999: IdleRun is probably about as close as you're going to get since there really isn't a reliable way to tell when your computer is done booting.  I mean, the best one could do is to measure CPU and disk usage over time and, when it settles down, you can then make an educated guess that the computer is done booting.  In other words, the OS doesn't give a programmer any indication that the system is done booting.  Make sense?

Does not work with other (non-US) locations. I tried Amsterdam, Hong Kong, Budapest, and Tokyo.

Works fine for me with the one you provided via PM.  Do you not have a default browser set?
