Title: Current Conditions in WeatherCat Banner
Post by: HairyMcLeary on March 07, 2012, 08:48:14 PM
Not sure where to post this one. Is it a bug or a feature request, or am I just doing something wrong?

I have an AppleScript which  modifies the current conditions in WeatherCat, this way I can use more arguments when creating a rule for current conditions than are available in the "Current Conditions" window.

This works great, except that the WeatherCat Banner shows the unmodified condition.

I.e. WeatherCat may be reporting "Clear", as set from the default WC CC window, but my script is set to change this if the humidity drops below 50% and the wind turns to the NW quarter, and will change the conditions to "High Cloud" (caused by the foehn coming over the Southern Alps), WC will report "High Cloud" as will my website, but the Banner still will show "Clear"

A very minor issue

Thanks Tony, looks like a bug to me - I'll look into it.

I can confirm that it is working properly.
The banner now shows the altered current conditions when my AppleScript over rides WC's current conditions. Previously the banner would still show the un-altered conditions.

Ok, I forgot how to generate a banner.  How do I get the banner to display with my postings?  Are there some directions here somewhere?  Thanks!

Randall gave you instructions on how to add your banner to your Forum signature in on your other thread.

If you need instructions on how to use the banner generator itself, Stu has them parked on page 60 of the WeatherCat manual.  [cat]
