@BugMeNot123
about the repositioning, i will take a look. maybe it is because of konfabulator set the position relative to the image positions in the widget or the widget size and there are weather icons (like hail) which are larger and having a lower vOffset like the sun.
disabling tooltips is a great idea, will add this feature.

@BugMeNot123, gracie34
about the update dialog every time you start the widget:
- if the update message is shown, there is a new update available. the version you have is v2.3 but there is a new version v2.3 (Hotfix) available. sorry for the confusion about the same version number but i had to do the update really fast because of the weather.com feed wasn't updating correct or wasn't updating at all. so, please download the hotfix version and the update message wont be displayed anymore.

disabling the update check will be an option in the next release.

@bluelegend
do you have the hotfix version installed? because in v2.3 the weather.com wasn't functioning well (see above)

i'm sorry osx isn't updating the last version. maybe i will have to upload a new 2.4 for osx update it.
savefile is working for me but maybe i have to find another place for the widget, if anybody can host it for me or can tell me where i can put it online that would be very nice.

about the positioning: the widget will be shown after an update the way that the weather icon image is shown completelly. if the image is covered from the top screen border, the widget will move down. you cant see where the sun image will end for instance because its opacity is near 0 on its borders. i have to take a look how i can optimize it a little bit.

Thanks SioSae for you reply, I got 2.3 from osx-e also thinking it was the latest version because it downloaded faster than savefile for me (I'm, on dialup). I think I will just wait for the next full version since that's the only problem I'm having.

Thanks again!

Hello there SioSae,

Here there, great work on this widget. One of my favorites so far. Anyway, I have a quick request. I notice that after I suspend my computer and then come back to it, it takes a while for the weather to update itself. Is there any way that you can make it so that it updates automatically upon reconnection (without having to click the white circle)?

Thanks,

Asim

maybe you should try deviantart.com.
Great work btw (Y)

Sometimes the update now button doesn't really update either. Changing the weather source will sort of fix it until it happens again. Not sure if it's important, but I usually don't shut down my laptop but hibernate it. With past versions the widget did not update for a long time after resuming from hibernation, not sure if it updates soon after resuming with the latest version though. I'm using the latest hotfix. Sometimes the updating dot does not go away after updating.

Very nice widget but I only have updates when I restart the program...the automatic updates don't work and the update now button either...it's a pitty

Looking in more details I figured out that that problem only happens with weatherchannel.com forecast. Accuweather works fine!

[ron21]

hey, What ever happened to version 2.4?

[Ghostwalker]

SioSae if you need a place to host it I will put it on my server just send it to me when your ready and I will send you the link.

[SioSae]

2.4 in in the works,
thank you ghostwalker, still needing a place for hosting it and i will send it to you if its finished.

Just one thing that I don't know if it is a bug or not. Every update on this widget freezes my computer. I can't do anything in that time (maybe 10 seconds). Since the widget is frequently being updated, that is really a problem to me. I love this widget and I don't want to change it

One possibility could be to have the option of changing the update frequence. That would be nice to me. I'm running on Windows XP SP2.

Thank you, can't wait for the dashboardweather update !!!

[ToddJ]

mine updates very slowly....has there been a new version of this widget yet?

[Bottles]

last update was around a year or so. I guess development has stopped

[liquidbrain]

More than 2 years without replies ...but i have to write ...

The widget is really amazing, work exactly like dashboard´s , but since las YWE update, it didnt refresh data ...

I tried to push the degree button, but nothing happens . I´ve compared with Yahoo weather to see this ... dont refresh data .

Hope siosae read this and can fix it. ...

[Björn]

He wasn´t here for two years. I doubt he get´s back.

[Ghostwalker]

When I get time I will have a look at it and see if I can fix it for him.

That part was a quick fix I will have to look and see what has changed with the AccuWeather Website the information it displays says it is 81 here when in fact it is 56. But the Weather.com works fine. I've been having problems with my domain so for now I dont have anywhere to upload it to. Hopefully it will be corrected which gives me time to find a solution for accuweather.

I just found this topic from a Google search, it's been a year since the last post, but was an update ever done? I'm using it in it's current form and it seems to be functional with AccuWeather.

I'd love to see an update. I might be able to host it, if anyone is still out there needing a spot for it!
