Hi Pasha,

The Winter screen saver on both of my XPs is the tree with white at night every time. I am now using RC 341 and have the same situation on both XPs. I bought a Win7 the other day but have not got it set up yet. I will set it up once Christmas is done and see if the same is happening on it.

On my XPs, there is another situation that I can reproduce on my own. Set up one of your locations as Mansfield, Ohio. The forecast for Thursday, Friday, and Saturday is in the 40 degree fahrenheit range. Click on one of those days for the forecast and snow disappears. Now click on LIVE. The snowman will completely light up and then go back to normal and the tree will have white all over the branches. Now press F5 and the tree will go back to normal.

The Widget does exactly the same as above. Click onto my website and select Mansfield, Ohio. Click on Thursday thru Saturday and then click on LIVE. You will have snowman lighting up and tree with white branches.

I wanted to mention the lighting up of the snowman as one time when the screen saver started up, the snowman lighted up for a second and then went to normal on its own.

I hope this helps you out. I also hope you are having a good holiday.

Marty

Thanks Marty!
I have found the error with the tree, it will be fixed in the upcoming RC.
The widget will hopefully be fixed today.

Thanks Jose!

1. I was not able to repeat the first problem with Light Rain text cut out.
Can you give me the steps to repeat it?

2. This is how METAR station name is recorded in our data base, unfortunately the name is cut out in the original data I have found on the Internet.

3. I did not understand the problem with PWS name

Hi Pavel
Well come back
Tanks for replying
Well PWS name there is nothing to do with it ... I mean that name still not being used on the program. We are able to name our PWS anything but we can´t see that name on YOWINDOW. That´s it not a big problem just a reminder.
Tanks anyway and let us wait for the next RC

Ah, okay
I will think about PWS name display when the time for PWS feature upgrade comes.

Pasha,

Sorry to give a late report.
I've found that on RC 431 and earlier versions we had the option under screensaver to let the application choose the location: After RC 431 this option disappeared.
Is this on purpose or did it 'get lost' somewhere?
If possible I would like to see it back.

Thanks,
Fred

Hey, Fred!
I have removed "Application choice" option because there is no sense in it since the selected location is now rolled back to the home city when YoWindow is started or opened from tray.
We had to do this to avoid user confusion.

Thanks Pasha!
