Hey T-Man wher you been at!!

Indeed My Friend

It is so, but only if you have set your update as per the attached image. I suspect that unless you manually close the 2nd Today when you close CHT the program is still running in the background and connects at the interval you have pre-determined. If you close 2nd today and leave it for some hours you will have data sets missing....

Or so I think

See other image I have attached WP resources.zip...to big for the server! The resources connect the update time to auto-connect.

Nice to have you back with us Bro'

Ciao

wow,

I am very happy with this tool, really the best I have ever seen.

But 2 questions I have :-)

Here on the picture you can see that the temperature is not in a full picture and also the left soft button is the button to refresh the "shares" from the MTP tool, is there a change that I can use this button for refresh of your great tool ?

thanks,

Steffen
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Dunc001:
Are you using Second Today or MTP (Manila Today Page) as you have said above? If you are using Second Today you have not followed the instruction to 'Disable Command Bar' in SToday Settings. Do this and the softkey bar will no longer be there. The theme is built for full screen without the softkey bar.

As far as update goes, push the update button on the top right button panel (the very top icon) and it will update. If it is not working it is because you are not using the latest upload of the theme in which this bug has been fixed. I am just uploading the latest fixes now to the first post so give it an hour or so, download the latest version, delete the DDT theme folder from WP>Themes and replace it with the new one.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Dunc001:
For the scrollbar either you downloaded the 6.5.x version and you are actually using a 6.5 ROM or you haven't followed the instruction to 'Disable Command Bar' in SToday Settings.

For fahrenheit - open WP settings (touch on settings button at bottom of button panel on main screen and select Settings from drop-down menu) and in Units click Edit button. There you can select preferred units for temp, barometric pressure, wind speed and visiblity :D

Any IDEAS?!

I am loving this app I must say.

I have one issue with my install. I have a Exclamation pic over the weather jpg file for my weather conditions. I don't know why it's there. Any help with this problem would be greatly appreciated. Below is a pic of the problem I'm having.

Hello, is there a description or instructions for Weather Panel 2010 to create a theme or change it?

Greeting Slide
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Dunc001:
Slide, for layout you can try here - http://pixel.dnsalias.net/weatherpanel/wiki/index.php/Layout_Reference

It's pretty sketchy but it is all I could find. A bit of reading and re-reading, and a lot of messing about and you should be able to figure it out. For icons, just open the PhatPhinger theme folder and you'll be able to see all of the png files that are involved if you want to edit them or make your own.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Dunc001:
Not seen it on mine but give me a few hours and I'll try to figure out what's going on.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Dunc001:
OK, so I've figured out which files in the theme control the layout and content on each window. The one for the moon screen is called popup_moon.wpx. If you can post a copy of this file from your install I'll have a look and see if I can figure out what's wrong. Your moon image to the right of the text should also be bigger than it is.

I've managed to edit the main screen layout to bring the current temp and update time down slightly so the other windows now completely hide it - if anyone else has this issue let me know.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Geordie502:
Hi all

This is trully a great application. The only problem I seem to be having is when you select a new city it overlaps the first one. At present I have London all looking good and working. I then select my next city and it sits on top off the London so it sort off overlaps.

I am hoping there is a simple fix for this, as once again credit to the person who has worked on this for all to use.

Thanks

to new city add setting according weather images (radars). It will be ok
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] curtin88:
Hi, this may sound silly. Is it necessary to install the "Second Today"?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Dunc001:
The exclamation is the weather alert icon so I can only assume that there is a weather warning out for your area. Does anything happen if you touch on it, or if you touch on the first of your 5 small weather icons (for today) is there any mention of the warning on the forecast page? If you like I'll have a look through the layout files and see if there is any way of disabling it.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Slide:
Thank´s for your answer Dunc001,

is it possible in the "Phat +220 + PBst.wpl" Skin Additional to the temperature and rain graphic on the home screen still make a Windsepped graphic.

Greeting Slide
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Dunc001:
Yes, you need to install Second Today. Weatherpanel is a Today Plugin, and as Sense replaces a standard Windows Mobile Today page you need somewhere on your phone for Weatherpanel to 'live'. The only options are Second Today or something like ManilaTodayPage (MTP) which lets you add a new Sense tab.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] curtin88:
Thank you Dunc001 for your reply.

Cleaned up main screen layout

I've just about managed to get my head round editing the wpl and wpx files in the theme folder to adjust the layout of the various pages. So far I have managed to slightly tweak the main page layout to bring the city, current condition and time texts down slightly. This has then allowed me to bring the current condition weather icon down a bit. I think this makes the main page better balanced visually. I have also moved the large temp and update time texts down slightly so they are no longer just visible above any of the other page top box. Finally I have amended the width of the city text box so the city/country name can now take up the whole width of the screen if required.

I have also made a minor tweak on the moon phase page as I found that in certain moon phases the length of the text became too big to fit into the text box causing it to flow out right across the screen. I have basically reduced the text size by 1 point on all of the descriptive text on the page so now all moon phases will fit OK.

If you want to apply these changes download and unzip the attached file. In the folder you will find two files which you need to copy into the PhatPhinger folder (in the Themes folder) and overwrite the existing files.

I have done all the steps as indicated, but when I finish point 9 and click the softkey to confirm, I get the following message at the bottom of the screen "WeatherPanel: Waiting for storagecard... or invalid layout type". After this nothing happens. If I click on the message the Today WeatherPanel opens and I can add cities, but I can add any weather image or layout. ¿Does anyone knows the reason for this? Thank you
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Dunc001:
If you've got your phone connected to a PC in Disc Drive mode it won't work as the phone locks out the storage card and WP can't initiate - don't know if this is your problem?

Any further help would be great

Are you using the arrows to shift between cities? Also, in Settings>Display have you unchecked the box beside 'Automatically Cycle Cities'?

Try a soft reset with it disconnected from your PC and try again.

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Dunc001:
Have never used MTP - check for settings in MTP and look for something like 'Disable softkey bar' or similar. If not PM me and let me know which layout you are using (V1+, Mid or Lite) and 6.5 or 6.5.x and I'll see if I can suggest a fix

Methinks this would need then a 340 screen-height-version since it is the same sit as in the original version Dunc created 3 months ago running on WM 6.5 WITH softbar checked.

For this You would need the Diamond-VGA-files and the wpl-mods posted by Davej on page 25/26 ff in this thread, meaning You can´t run the actual DDT-Version which requires a 360 or 380 screen-height made possible by unchecking the bottom softbar.

Dunno if Dunc can press his new version into 340-screen-height and might make Dunc go berserk ´cause he invested minimum 100 hrs. (if not more) into the 360/380 versions, and believe me, it´s a hell of a work since I invested some 20 hrs. into sloppy little graphic mods in older versions by far not as elaborate as Dunc´s newest DDT-genious-strike .................. :D:D:D:D

Screens Superimposed

This is an awesome weather app! But I'm having some display problems.

I'm running Energy's Aug 18th 23678 build on a Verizon TP2. All functions of the app seem to work flawlessly except when I try to navigate back to the home screen. When I select the home icon, the home screen displays, but the previous screen is "superimposed" on my screen, leaving a jumble of images. I thought that maybe I was using the incorrect theme package so I tried them all (6.5 , 6.5.x , 6.5.x 12hr..well maybe not all of them but I thought that should cover the spectrum enough).

On an embarrassing side note....I can't figure out how to exit the darn thing! Is there an exit or close button I've overlooked?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] darkblak:
In that case - thank you for this great App.

What links are you using for your UK satellites for the maps?

Same problem with artemis 30.0 ;)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] troed:
Don´t You have a little green "OK" button on the top right corner of the screen ? This has to be pressed to leave the app.

If no green "OK"-button You might have to install a Task-Manager (e.g. Duttys) to get the green "OK" button.

Or a workaround: You have to quit WP via a task manager .................
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] horusgod:
No, probably the "close button" depends on what ROM is installed, with mine I've to close using back button, no problem for this.

But the "superimposed" of the screens is the real "problem" :( , if for example I'm going looking for 10 days then go back to main screen I'll see the two screens together, obviously impossible to read. I've to exit the program and back in again to see the "clean" first page.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] troed:
What You can try is following:

on page 25/26 ff You find a different theme (modded by Davej and partly me).

Just download the files posted there and JUST COPY FOLDERS containing this different theme to the Sub-folders "Themes" and "icons" in Marsware/Weatherpanel.

DO NOT UNINSTALL WP OR CHANGE ANYTHING, JUST COPY THE NEW FOLDERS INTO YOUR EXISTING INSTALLATION. You now have two different themes to choose from: the DDT and the "old" VGA-Theme

Now You can choose the new theme in WP settings, softreset and see if the "old" theme works better on Your TP2. If Yes, You can stick to it but You don´t need to delete the DDT-folders, You simply have now TWO themes to choose from.

The screen corruption might come from the entirely new coding Dunc performed for the HD2 to decrease file sizes and increase app-speed as well as clean programming of the partly messy "old" themes.

Try it and report if it then works nicely .............. :D:D:D

(maybe the modding done 1 month ago is still good for something :D)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Dunc001:
You have to have Second Today running to be able to access the settings page so open WP then press your hardware Start Menu button. Then open the Second Today folder and click on SToday Settings - should open now.

During the setup process in the Second Today settings did you tick the 'Use custom background' box and select a wallpaper? Haven't had anyone else with this issue on the new release, but did have an issue on the old Phatphinger release with overlapping city names caused by this. Alternatively, are you meaning that you can see a small section of another screen below the one you are on at the bottom of your screen? If so there is a bug in the current release which opens a new screen as a POPUP above the Home page if you click on the area of the home screen where the temperatures are. I am just about to upload new theme folders to the first post which will cure this and a few other issues. Keey an eye on the changelog in post 3 and download the new theme zip. You'll then need to delete your existing DDT theme folder and replace it with the new one.

It is a Today plugin, hence Second Today so you can't exit WP as such. You have to quit Second Today. It won't show in a task manager for the same reason. In the Second Today folder there is an icon for SToday Quit so if you really want to be able to quit it altogether just select that as a quicklink in CHT and use it to close. Otherwise you just use any of your hardkeys (back, home or start menu) to exit to wherever you like. WP then keeps running in the background so it is always current when you open it :D

Download the radars.txt from the this post and overwrite the existing one in your WP folder. I'm using the one named Europe_IR for the animated cloud cover image but there are plenty of others to choose from.

Working on a cab install at the moment with jmart518 - watch first post for that in a couple of days. Only thing it won't do is the main icon folder (only because of cab file size limit on XDA) so they'll still need to be downloaded and installed seperately. :D
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] :
Hi there,

Small problem here, the information tab's are overlapping? So when i select the 10 day's forecast, then it overlaps the curent weather graphic!? It happens with every screen and i cant fix it.

Superimposed screens

I have the same problem with superimposed screens. Worked fine yesterday when I installed it, but this morning I get the problem, and also now have screen height problem with soft keys partly showing (OK yesterday). I haven't reinstalled so don't know why it should change.

Using WM6.5/24H V1+ with TMobUK ROM 1.43.110.2
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Dunc001:
Can you check your Second Today settings (open WP, press hard start menu button, open Second Today folder and click SToday Settings) and make sure you have a custom background selected and that the 'Disable Command Bar' box is still checked. If these settings have changed then something else you have on your phone is obviously conflicting with Second Today and I'm afraid I can't help there - maybe a search elsewhere for a solution? If those settings are OK then wait for the updated theme release, hopefully this afternoon - watch the changelog in post 3.

Also screenshots please - a picture speaks a thousand words!

Final (hopefully!) revised theme folders uploaded in 1st post

We've been working on updating the theme folders flat out for the last day and have been testing on both sides of the planet on both WM versions and are happy that all issues with DDT are now resolved (...)

The revised theme folders are now in the first post so download, delete any existing DDT folders from WP>Themes and replace with the new one. 12 and 24hr layouts now consolidated in one folder for each WM version so 6 layout options in the list now (V1+, V1Mid & V1Lite for both time formats).
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] jaguaralani:

Well done......

I can confirm now that the 'uodate button issue' is solved on all the layouts ( Full-Mid-Lite )
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Metalhead_79:
Now works flawlessly, nice!

Don´t know if anybody would like that WP auto returns to the main screen when you press the home button? I would like that feature, of course you can press back twice to get the same result, but just a sugestion...
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Dunc001:
I know :D:D:D Thanks Jag!

Don't quite understand? Pressing the Home button in the shortcut panel in DDT should take you back to whichever main screen you left originally now (so if you're using V1+ and you had info and/or forecast panels open it will be the same when you return). If you press your hardware back key when anywhere other than main screen in WP it will also take you back to the main screen. If you press your hardware home button it will take you to your main Home screen (CHT, etc). Can't really see what else you can need?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] troed:
Do You propose to press the home button twice to return to home screen, meaning one press brings You back to previous screen You visited ?

Wouldn´t make much sense since from each screen You can jump to a specific screen with the nav. buttons ???????????

Hi Dunc-Master of my Weather ! My Hero !

I got a funny idea this day: I will "rape" the moon page and try if I can get some images from Mars, Venus, Jupiter etc. together with NASA-planet-weather (if freely accessible) to create a "planet-weather"-page. Will You kill me when I start this ? :D:D:D:D
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] cresco299:
Makes sense! Thanks for the reply. The recently uploaded themes fixed the problem I've had with the screens being superimposed on top of one another when navigating back to home screen. Did I mention this is an awesome app?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Metalhead_79:
Sorry, guess I was a bit fuzzy.

What I really was after was that WP would always show the main screen when you touch the weather section on the home screen, instead of leaving what ever page was open when you last exited WP using the hardware home button or hardware windows button.

Nothing I couldn´t live without, but would in my opinion give it a bit more "stock feeling".
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Dunc001:
The only way I can think of to make this happen would be to write a Mortscript script to run the SToday Quit programme then to restart Second Today. You'd then have to set the script as the default weather app in CHT. Not something I'd be looking to do, but I'm sure someone could write one for you to make it work.
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Metalhead_79:
Yes I figured it might be somewhat of a hassle to make it do that.

No worries, I love it as it is!
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] horusgod:

@Dunc001

Many, many thanks for the update, After unzipping, i had to rename folder DDT Ultimate 6.5 in DDT Ultimate WVGA

works fine now! Realy love the app;)

Find only the weatherinfo* sometimes funny/illogical, such as:

Heavy rain with 100% chance of rain.

Showers with a 60% chance of rain

Rain in the evening with 90 % chance of precipitation

In my opinion, when it rains there is no chance of precipitation, but then it just rains. Didn't see showers without rain yet!:D

Or maybe I miss something?!

Sorry when i didn't understand the weatherinfo, please correct me.

Is there an option to correct/adjust this weatherinfo*?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Themes and Apps] Dunc001:
The wording works with most of the weather conditions just not when rain/showers/etc are forecast! Had to go for something and it seemed like the best fit. I do admit it can seem a little bit strange at times :rolleyes: I guess you just have to look at it that even thought rain may be forecast it may not be 100% certain to rain, hence the % quote as well. If you can come up with a better suggestion for the wording, or if you would prefer just 'bullet points' (ie - weather condition then icon and detail like in the home screen info panel) let me know. I might consider writing an overwrite layout for that particular page as an option...
