:D:D Thank You so much. Your theme looked really nice and I was so bummed when it didnt work....you are the man!

Now I must begin compulsively checking this site for theme!!!:):)
[Windows Mobile Themes] Rumball:
No problem madofa41 But just to save you a bit on your compulsive monitoring of this website ( ;) )...I probably won't be finished updating all the files until a week from today ... so check back next weekend. There are a lot of edits that need to be made to a lot of files.

Is there any way to put the radar screen on the bottom half of the main screen. That would allow me to view upcoming weather without having to open a page to view the radars. It would be something like the original weatherpanel "default-radar.wpl"
[Windows Mobile Themes] kbywg:
FREAKIN AWESOME!!! Thanx for this too. This Rumball Weather panel theme just keeps going and going, so I'm on my way over to contribute again. This together with APBilbo's Throttle Launcher has made my HTC an incredible IPhone killer.

:cool:
[Windows Mobile Themes] FatBoyExtraordinaire:
We've had a few varying weather conditions as of late in Philadelphia and showing off all the various animations was fantastic. Who knew weather could be so fascinating! lol
[Windows Mobile Themes] robertg9:
Hi kbywg,

I'm assuming your tutorial was meant to help me, but I think you misunderstood my question. I know how to add different radars to the app.

What I want to do is to put those images on the "Front Page" at the bottom half. That is what I don't know how to do

Thanks,

Bob
[Windows Mobile Themes] badwolf:
second on the add radar image to first page. I can paste it in but my design skills are lacking....

I did add uv and real feel, but cant get the hang of where to add the radar....
[Windows Mobile Themes] kbywg:
UHHH...that was not a tutorial from me 2 u, that was me quoting something from rumball and giving him kudos.:D
[Windows Mobile Themes] One Hype:
Could someone please find me a website so I can get radar images for Pleasanton, California area code 94588? Thanks. I would greatly appreciate it.Thanks.

Rumball, I really like the large looping animated weather icons you have made and I would like to make a donation so that I can get them from you but I have a question first. I set Weatherpanel up yesterday and installed your trial animated icons and all worked well but when I got up this morning I notice it had gone back to the small image in the upper left corner. After doing some checking I found out that the reason it went back to the smaller image was because the forecast for today is "Fair" which is image 34 but there is no image 34 in the large image set, I had to copy one of the other images and change the name. If I donate to you and get the non-trial version of your animated icons, are all of the images going to be there or will some of the images be missing because I want to have a complete set. Another question, if this is a complete set and I do donate do you automatically send me the link or do I have to let you know that I made a donation. And one last question, I like the theme that you have created but there are a couple of things that I want to change to make it fit my WAD2 theme and I was wondering if you had or knew where I could get a skinning guide for Weatherpanel so that I can make changes or even a completely different theme in the future and not have it mess up because I missed something. Thanks for your time and for making this really cool theme.
[Windows Mobile Themes] robertg9:
Runball, I also have a similar question. Are these Animated ICONS for VGA or just QVGA?

Bob
[Windows Mobile Themes] Rumball:
Currently the animations are only QVGA...however I am looking into generating a subset of VGA animations...
[Windows Mobile Themes] Rumball:
Good detective work! ;) Ya...I forgot to include two animations in the trial set...34 is one of them and I forget what the other one is. The non-trial icons do have the complete set of icons.

As for modifying the weatherpanel layout files...they are relatively straightforward to modify. You can find a skinning guide at http://pixel.dnsalias.net/weatherpanel/wiki/index.php/Layout_Reference
[Windows Mobile Themes] kaneelias:
Hi Rumball,

I noticed today when the forecast was showing smoke, the icon reverted to a medium sized icon instead of the single play large icon, not sure which number it was but i thought i would let you know.

Draft WP Layouts for Omnia

For those of you that have the Omnia I have put together a first draft of the weatherpanel layouts that should work with the WQVGA 240x400 Omnia screen. Please let me if you find any mistakes/problems with the files. I did notice that the moon icons do not appear correctly...so I'm looking into how to fix that...

You can find the Omnia layouts attached to the first post in this thread.

Enjoy! :D

Omnia Weatherpanel Version

Hey Rumball

First off thanks for making an omnia version of your theme. It is very much appreciated by us omnia users.

Some problems I noticed while using it, is that the animation theme for the weather is directly on top of the temperature. Moreso immeaditely on top of the second digit in the temperature. Also, im not sure whether this is intended or not, but the application only uses half of the screen. All of the informations is there but it seems to be crammed onto the upper half of the screen.

Im not too computer savvy, otherwise id take a screenshot of the screen if that is somehow possible. If you want a better description just let me know!

Thanks and great job
[Windows Mobile Themes] neodd70:
Missing Animations

Rumball, First off I wanted to thank you for the email with the link to the non-trial version of the animated weather Icons, there are however quite a few missing animations and I don't know if it is something with the download file or if they are just in fact missing. I downloaded the looping set and I have to wait to download the play once set so I don't know if the same ones are missing there or not. Here is a list of the animations that are missing from the looping set:

2 - hurricane

4 - thunderstorms

17 - hail

18 - sleet

22 - smoky

24 - windy

33 - fair(night)

35 - mixed rain and hail

38 - scattered thunderstorms (could use 39 because it also is scattered thunderstorms)

40 - scattered showers

41 - heavy snow

42 - scattered snow showers

44 - partly cloudy

Again I don't know if the play once set is missing these also. Could you please let me know where I can get these missing looping animations so that I may have the complete set as I have not found another set that I like. These are the best ones I have found and I have looked everywhere, you do awesome work. - Thanks
[Windows Mobile Themes] Rumball:
Hmmm...you know what...you're right! I forgot to put the large-sized 22.wpa ("smoke") in the release :o

The animation is actually the same as for 23.wpa so you can simply make a copy of 23.wpa and rename it to 22.wpa....sorry about that! I'll make sure to add it for the next release of the icons.
[Windows Mobile Themes] Rumball:
As indicated in the previous post I have noticed that the 22.wpa ("Smoke") animation was mistakenly left out in the release (sorry! :o). See the previous post for workaround.

As for the other icons that you list, Weatherpanel will not actually display them and so that's why I didn't bother to include them in the icon-set. When the weather forecast/data calls for the following icons, the WeatherPanel application will display the following equivalent icon for some reason;

0 – Thunderstorms

1 - Windy Rain

2 - Windy Rain -Weatherpanel will display icon '1' instead

3 – Thunderstorms

4 – T-Storms -Weatherpanel will display icon '3' instead

5 – Rain Snow

6 – Rain Sleet

7 - Snow/Rain Icy Mix

8 – Freezing Drizzle

9 – Drizzle

10 – Freezing Rain

11 – T-Showers / Showers / Light Rain

12 - Heavy Rain

13 - Snow Flurries

14 – Light Snow

15 – Snowflakes

16 - Heavy Snow

17 – Thunderstorms -Weatherpanel will display icon '3' instead

18 – Hail -Weatherpanel will display icon '6' instead

19 – Dust

20 – Fog

21 – Haze

22 – Smoke

23 – Windy

24 – Windy -Weatherpanel will display icon '23' instead

25 – Frigid

26 – Cloudy

27 - Mostly Cloudy Night

28 - Mostly Cloudy

29 - Partly Cloudy Night

30 - Partly Cloudy

31 – Clear Night

32 – Sunny

33 – Fair / Mostly Clear Night -Weatherpanel will display icon '31' instead

34 – Fair / Mostly Sunny

35 – Thunderstorms -Weatherpanel will display icon '3' instead

36 – Hot

37 – Isolated Thunder

38 – Scattered T-Storms -Weatherpanel will display icon '37' instead

39 - Scattered Rain -Weatherpanel will display icon '12' instead

40 - Heavy Rain -Weatherpanel will display icon '12' instead

41 - Scattered Snow -Weatherpanel will display icon '16' instead

42 - Heavy Snow -Weatherpanel will display icon '16' instead

43 - Windy/Snowy

44 - Partly Cloudy Day -Weatherpanel will display icon '30' instead

45 – Scattered Showers Night

46 - Snowy Night

47 – Scattered T-Storms Night
[Windows Mobile Themes] neodd70:
I apologize, I must have been looking at a different list of weather conditions because I see in the list you have just provided that the images that I said were missing had duplicate descriptions with a different number. The list I was looking at showed all of the ones I listed as missing as the only ones with their description there wasn't another one with a different number that had the same description. Could you point me to where the right list is? I know you posted all of them above but I want to see if there is other info that could be useful. Thanks
[Windows Mobile Themes] Rumball:
I'm not sure where the "official" list is...but I got mine from the developer of the WeatherPanel application. If you go to http://www.marsware.net/WeatherPanel/icon-index.php?name=Novaweather Animated it shows an example of a weatherpanel icon set from the developer. Right-clicking on each icon and selecting "properties" will tell you it's icon #.

Donation made. Only 2 dollars, wasnt more in my account.

Credit crisis and all..

You´re doing a nice job here.
[Windows Mobile Themes] Rumball:
Thanks for the observations madofa41....just a note...in order to use this theme you need to follow the full installation instructions in post 1...then after you've installed the complete theme (with icons) then you download the omnia theme files and put them in the weatherpanel\theme directory. Is this what you did?
[Windows Mobile Themes] pandaboyy:
I've searched the thread over and over again, but can't find a way to integrate WeatherPanel into TF3D, can you give me some tips on this please?

Also, I'm having problem with the way how the weather (not only the moon) is displayed.... can anyone show me how to put this in TF3D tab like those image on post #1 and how to fix the display of those weather image?
[Windows Mobile Themes] Rumball:
See Frequently Asked Question (FAQ) #8 at the bottom of the first post. The images generated for post #1 have weatherpanel integrated with UltimateLauncher or ThrottleLauncher using a TF3D theme.

As for the placement of the graphics, try the new VGA layouts atached at the bottom of the first post.
[Windows Mobile Themes] pandaboyy:
That's the first thing I read. It says "you can't"... then I read the post and someone said they got it integrated into TF3D... that's why I asked the question
[Windows Mobile Themes] chizzy58:
Omnia user

I believe i have this setup properly, however my animations appear in the top left corner and it is partially covering the temperature.

if i send the donate, does that give me a large icon that is in the middle of the screen with the windshield wiper (whem its raining) and all the others in the MIDDLE of the screen?

my settings:

theme: Manila-omnia

layout: Manila.wpl

icon set: Manila WP icons
[Windows Mobile Themes] Rumball:
Did you download the LARGE icon pack (it is a seperate download)? Check that you have a bunch of .wpl files in your Manila WP Icons/LARGE folder
[Windows Mobile Themes] fga:
Hi Rumball,

Thanks for your great works.

I test the trial version large icon and remark some icon are not animated large icon. (31, 36, 32, 19, 21, 22, 23, 20, 6, 29, 25, 26)

It's the same things in the non trial version ?

(Sorry for my english)
[Windows Mobile Themes] chizzy58:
:)

you rock!

tithes have been sent ;)
[Windows Mobile Themes] madofa41:
I thought I did it correctly, I will check everything again as it seems another omnia user has gotten the themes to work. Thanks a lot for your help! Ill post later and send a donation! Keep up the good work
[Windows Mobile Themes] madofa41:
I also have one more question. I tried using the diamond today theme, but it is not coming out correctly. The top and bottom start bar both turn black with white font but the actual background turn into greenish blue color. I noticed that this is the same background color selected in the theme maker. I tried changing the color in theme maker but it changes back to the green blue when i select the diamond theme. Is this a possible omnia issue? Thanks for your help!!
[Windows Mobile Themes] m.dablik:
same problem with omnia

Hi Rumball :)

thanks for great work :) I'm also owner of omnia and I have the same problem as chizzy58 or madofa. I can swear that I did each step of instalation according to your description and also filled LARGE file with new icons. But still facing the problem. It seems that large icons appear like small images and are placed in front of temperature. I will be gratefull for your help :)

I'm not sure if other omnia users have the same problem but another thing I'm battling with is calling for settings. Icons are hidden and it takes a time to call them to appear.
[Windows Mobile Themes] chizzy58:
the LARGE file should be empty...then just copy the files over from the download.

make sure you set it in the settings...you should be fine.

maybe a soft reset ya know?

good luck!
[Windows Mobile Themes] m.dablik:
thanks chizzy :) hmmm, I did it ... file was empty so I downloaded large icons and upload the to proper file. also did the reset ... but I will try it again :) does it work in your omnia already? I also found some other bugs but i need a time to put everything together
[Windows Mobile Themes] m.dablik:
finally solved :) list of other bugs will be soon
[Windows Mobile Themes] SnrSuave:
I am also having the same issue as other people with the omnia. I have tried everything I can think of. For those that got it working, can you please give a more detailed description of what you did to get it working correctly? Thanks!
[Windows Mobile Themes] m.dablik:
You have to download the omnia layouts and fill Large folder with xvga files. Change settings (theme, layout and icons) to Manila and restart the device.

I found some more bugs but basics work :)
[Windows Mobile Themes] SnrSuave:
I got it working for the most part. All the animated icons work except for the "Fair" animation. That one is smaller and is placed on top of the current temperature. Apparently this is a problem of the trial icon set. The LARGE animation file for "FAir" was not included in the set. I have donated and hope that the full set includes this animation.

P.S. Anyone have the 34.wpa file for the FAIR weather animation to put in the LARGE folder?
[Windows Mobile Themes] chizzy58:
i have donated...but i havent heard anything yet.

and the app just died!

i sent you an email so can you please contact me?

the error reads:

it doesnt even come out properly, i am sure thats because its the omnia.

WP Not updating?

I think it's best I put this in here as it seems to be the most active WP thread anywhere, even more so than the official site and other uses may be having the same issue?

All this was working fine for me (amazing work!) but yesterday the data stopped downloading saying "there was no data for the city".

I've made sure I'm running the 2009 patched version from PPCGeeks with moon and time fixes - even dowloaded and ran separately to confirm - I run diagnostics and UBETCHA is displayed with everything else confirmed, but still no update possible.....

I've updated the .dll (posted here thanks) to the two different servers (trial and non trial versions to make sure!). GPRS, WIFI, activesync connections. Unistalled, reinstalled. Tried storage card and main memory but still no data comes through......

I only have a few strands of hair left - Anyone any ideas???

It's mentioned that the animated weather is only for trial? I'm assuming this has nothing to do with it......?

I'll post this over at the official site too, but think I'll get more of a repsonse here.

Anyone :confused:

Thanks in advance.

Weather Panel Working Now

Further to my last post, I tried everything before finally removing the animated icon set etc and it updated fine straight away........

I've no idea how this could be causing an issue, but I'm sure I tried everything else prior to this with no joy......

I'll install the icons again now (as I want them to work using mortscript to auto update S2u2's background on current weather) and see how long it lasts this time.
[Windows Mobile Themes] tcbusch:
Try manually accessing the weather.com page with your city information. Use this format and place it in your browsers address bar:

http://xoap.weather.com/weather/local/55108

You will need to modify the url with your cities location or zip code. Using the example above you will want to replace 55108 with your cities info. If the link does not work then weather.com is the issue. If the link does work then your phone is the issue.
[Windows Mobile Themes] xeno1:
Hey Brandall, that isn't anything too unusual. Weather Panel loses my town occasionally sometimes for as much as a week. Whenever it happens I just put the next town over in and go with it until it decides to find weather info for my town again.
[Windows Mobile Themes] m.dablik:
few bugs

hey guys, I would like to add few bugs:

1. it was mentioned somwhere in this thread but icon for fair weather doesn't appear correctly

2. when you click on the 6 days overview, the temperature next to the 1st icon appears differently than others /is bigger/

3. in the same overview the graphics of moon phases is "strange" :)

4 when you click on the city name - in the details there are some details displayed wrong: humidity, wind, etc. Looks like there are 2 things at the same place.
[Windows Mobile Themes] Rumball:
You are using one of the new Omnia layouts correct? Which layout did you select; Manila, Manila-5day, Manila-TL, or Manila-5day-TL?
[Windows Mobile Themes] m.dablik:
Yes, I'm using Omnia theme and layout Manila TL 5 day. Thanks :)
[Windows Mobile Themes] albertequisdea:
Just donated for the animated icon set. Alas, I thought it was VGA compatible. My fault, I haven't read carefully. The truth is that the anmated icons apear tiny in the upper left corner of the screen.

May I encourage you to produce a VGA animated set ? Thanks in advance.

Missing Single Large Icon

Thanks for getting back to me, i have since put number 23 in as 22, however looking over them, 22 is the same as 19 not 23, i had wind representing smoke for a while there.

What i would like to bring up though is both 19 and 22 sit lower than all the other icons in the layout, they are taking up some of the city title, but all other icons are aligned.

Just thought i would bring it up so it can be looked at for the next release, thanks.

weatherpanel animated icons

hi, i wish to have the animated icons for my weatherpanel, i read your post and i´m member of xda-developers, can you send to me or give any address to download ?

thanks
[Windows Mobile Themes] brandall:
Thanks for your replies Xeno1 & tcbusch.

I did try all the sites and the towns next to me, but nothing solved the problem until I re-installed the original icons; it updated straight away. I then re-added the animated icons and it's continued to work since...... mystery.....

But it's working for now!
[Windows Mobile Themes] Rumball:
Try using just the Manila-5 day layout. The TL layouts are now obsolete because ThrottleLauncher has fixed the incompatability that existed previously. I am removing them from my next release.
[Windows Mobile Themes] jss52:
If i choose to use the Manila-1line layout, it works well at the bottom of the Today 2 screen, but when I select it, the size is too big for the screen (height & width). Can someone tell me what specific changes need to be made (and what value) to that layout file to fix it so this can be used?

currently, i just have to use the 5day(short) and not have the use of today2 as the whole screen is taken by WP
[Windows Mobile Themes] Rumball:
What kind of device are you using? When you click on the Manila-1line layout a fullscreen 240x320 pop-up window should appear....

Hello Rumball,I have to install the new version off throttle launcher 0.9.6 and your animated skin no working on this version.Envisaged an update or have an explanation?Thanks for your reponse.
[Windows Mobile Themes] Rumball:
I'm using ThrottleLauncher 0.9.6 and WeatherPanel and my animations works fine with it...I'm not sure what the problem could be. Do you have AutoLoad set to TRUE for your weather page? I heard that this can cause problems.

Thanks Kaneelias! I've fixed the icons for my next release (hopefully very soon)...

By the way...what city are you from...you always seem to get all the interesting weather! ;)
[Windows Mobile Themes] xboxhaxorz:
Do you think you will have a release that doesnt have all these steps to get it to work?

It looks great, a suitable replacement for TF3D weather :)
[Windows Mobile Themes] Rumball:
Yes...my goal is to create a cab for the installation of my next version. Although you'll still need to manually download the LARGE icon set since it is far too large to put in a cab.

BTW...here's what the new 5-day layout looks like (with my ThrotteLauncher TF2D theme). The Fog, Smoke, Haze, and Dusty weather icons have also been completely redone.
