OK
We have planned YoWindow widget redesign.
When I put my hands over it we will try to make everybody happy.

One possibility would be that if temperature (or any other value like wind, pressure, ...) is (double-)clicked, the value & unit changes from celsius to fahrenheit and back on another (double-)click.
It would help keeping options within a limit.

Ah, yes, but the problem is that the user may not know that she needs to double-click the temperature to see it in Fahrenheit.

"read the manual" - if there would be any, but you are right. Hmmm.... :? I'm curious how your solution will look like!

Pasha,

My suggestion is have a control between YoWindow.com and Forecast by Yr.No or NWS. If widget is showing Fahrenheit, the control would read click here for Celsius and vice-versa. Where I have the rough penciled in line, you would have the Metric/English Control. I hope this helps.

So far I think the only solution for a small widget is to auto-detect visitor language and try to pick the unit system accordingly.

Marty, thanks.
