NEW: Location Properties

Post by par »

At last, I have added a new feature to YoWindow.

You can find more information about location and current-weather meteostation now.

The feature is available in release candidate (RC) build only.
You may download RC from release candidate page.

Feature details.

Go to Menu/Location/Location properties...
There you will find out:
- selected location coordinates
- location time-zone
- METAR station properties
- location season-map

METAR station is a meteorological station where YoWindow takes the current weather from.
YoWindow picks the closest known METAR station to the location you choose.
Now you know which METAR station is used, and how far it is located from your place.

Season map describes the days when the season picture changes in YoWindow.
Example.
06.01:summer/11.24:winter
This means, that from 1st of June to the 24th of November YoWindow will display Summer picture, the Winter picture displayed on the other days of the year.

If you think the season-map is incorrect, you may propose a different season-map for your location in our forum, here

Please report bugs you may find in the Release Candidate.
I have touched many parts of YoWindow recently, so the chance of error is pretty high.

The feature will be availble in the release build if we don't find any major problems.

Thank you for support!

Great Job Pasha,

I like it.
Any change that we can edit the seasons data ourselves?
I was thinking of standard data from YoWindow-server and an option to use custom data.

Thanks
Fred
