New Windows build at last!
What's new?
A lot!

- BETA: leaves
This is a new feature that we expected to release in the beginning of Autumn.
Unfortunately, it turned out to be complex and took two months to complete.

In this build the leaves are available in all seasons to make it easy to test.
In the final release we expect to show leaves in Autumn and Naked seasons only.
You can play with leaves in Village and Town landscapes.
Town is available in "debug" mode.
We rely on you to report all the strange things you to notice with leaves behavior.

We are making this feature together with our new team member - Ivan.

Guys, what do you think about the leaves? We need to know!


- FIXED: temperature invisible in the tray area after Windows restart.
This error was very hard to fix.
Took me 4 days of work and still there are a couple of missing features.
Please test if the temperature is updated properly and there are no crashes.

Missing features:
- PWS is not supported yet, but I will fix it over time
- max/min temperature is not displayed in the popup window


- Cow!
No need introduction.
Most of you already seen Marfa.

- Open Candy plugin removed (Software offers on YoWindow installation)
We have decided to get rid of Open Candy because the plugin has significantly undermined YoWindow reputation.
It made more harm than benefit, unfortunately.

Hi Pasha,

Played around a little, so far so good. But, personally I was hoping to see the city landscape rather than the leafs.

Regards, Max

Max, we are trying our best to deliver as much content and features as we can.
Town landscape requires much more work than leaves, unfortunately.
Stay tuned!

I will, thx.

Hi Pasha,

I need to do more testing on the Leaves.
I wanted to see what the Leaves would look like in Autumn so I switched to Vienna.
I did not see any Leaves flying around so I switched back to Mansfield and LIVE weather.
I found this set of errors.
This was on my Win7.

This was when I first switched from Vienna back to Mansfield. This was after I made the above Snip of Mansfield. This is what Mansfield looks like after completely closing YoWindow and then restarting. This is correct.

Hi,
very nice, the leaves, but I think they are perhaps a little too big

Best regards
Claude

Thank you, Marty! That was very important finding!

Hi Pasha,

I tried the tray icon on both my WinXP and Win7.

When I first turn on the PCs, the tray icon will display the sun and finally display the temperature.
After about 10 seconds, the tray icon will display the sun again.

I need to do some further testing.

Thank you, dear Marty!

I cannot repeat this on my Win 8.

If you click the sun icon (after 10 seconds) will YoWindow open? Will YoWindow to show temperature in this case?

Marty, I was not able to repeat this error.
Do you know a stable way to repeat?
