YoWindow Forum

When a PWS write the XML file with the cloud value, for example:

<clouds value="mostlyCloudy" include="always"/>

On the main display, under the Icon for the cloud condition, it says "Description" rather than "mostlyCloudy".

YoWindow is correctly interpreting the XML file and clouds value, but this text is wrong.

Thanks.

See attached image.

Thanks for reporting!
Please provide full yowindow.xml for the reference.

Certainly.

As I mentioned, the program does change the sky conditions correctly so this is just apparently a problem with that particular field.

Thank you.

I believe you're missing the

<description value="Sunny"/>

part which is what will display. That way it can be in any language.

Ahhhh yes, I just assumed that this Description would be create from the cloud value, my mistake!

I will give that a go.

Thanks.

That was my problem.

Thank you for the heads up.
