What's new:
- new tray popup
- airport: take-off angle increased
- balloons: more varieties, fire added


New weather popup (Inspector) for Windows tray.

Why new weather popup?
It looks great and reflects YoWindow Inspector almost identically.
It is easy to read.
It opens fast and reliable.

A little bit of technical details.
The popup is a part of YoWindow 3.0
It is written in a contemporary language - Flash Action Script 3.0. (YoWindow 2.0 is written in Action Script 2.0)
This is kind of early access to YoWindow 3.0 (this is the real reason why we have given this task a priority)

Also we have decided to try a new way to display feels-like temperature.
We have temperature in the center, hi/lo to the right, so it looks reasonable to put feels-like to the left.
This way Inspector looks more comact and the temperatures are easy to read.
Do you like this way of feels-like presentation?

As usual, your comments and error reports are welcome.

Hi Pavel,

maybe i'm wrong but can it be that the ballons go to a certain height but not higher?

The screenshot shows YoWindow in fullscreen-mode with much wind. The ballons get higher and higher but suddenly stop at the height you can see:

In RC479 (which says "478" in the about window) the popup-tray-window still doesn't show the new position for feels-like temperature:

Maybe that's because the sky in your picture isn't as high as the sky in my picture?
How is it in reality? Ballons doesn't raise to infinity, do they? So maybe i should call it "reality implemented"-feature :wink:
