Extra day off!
Posted: Sat Jan 16, 2010 2:10 am
Interesting bug in build 229: as soon as you add / select a location from North or South America, you'll get three-day weekends on the Forecast Panel... Well, this "bug" would be a nice feature for the real life, wouldn't it? 
While I haven't figured out a way how to get this in real life, I can suggest a way to reproduce it in YoWindow:
- start the program
=> notice that weekends in the forecast panel only have two days, nothing interesting.
- try changing location to any one from Europe, Asia, Australia, or Africa
- can do this multiple times
=> the forecast panel still shows two-day weekends... how boring.
- now add any location from North or South America, or select it from your list if you have it there
=> bingo! enjoy an extra day off
I tried various locations, and the extra nonworking day appeared consistently dependent on location: Friday for Americas and Monday for other continents. See the attached screenshot.
