Title: Select date in statistics and charts
Post by: Jvince on January 02, 2017, 10:36:49 PM
Dear all
Happy new year to everyone !

I've been using WC for a while now but there is one thing I still do not understand:
In the Statistics tool, in the monthly tab, how can I change the month date ?
I'd like to see other months than the current one. Is that possible ?

Same question for charts, i have yearly charts for rain and min/max temperature but how can I see those charts for previous years ?

Is this something that can be added in a future version ?

Thanks for your help.
Best regards
Jvince

There is no way that I know of to see other months from that pane - only the current month.  However, you can generate a very similar (if more detailed) NOAA Styled Reports under the Tools Menu.

You can use the WeatherCat controller to set what you are viewing on the graphs.  It is described on page 30 of the current WeatherCat manual.

Thank you Edouard for your reply.

NOAA reports are indeed great for what I wanted to do.

Regarding charts, since mine are anchored, apparently I cannot change the time range.

Thanks for your help.

These were a welcome addition to WeatherCat,

I guess you are correct.  Graphs that are anchored cannot be used to view data in the past.  You would have to create new custom scrolling graphs to view past data.  I suppose that makes sense, anchored graphs only make sense in certain historical context.
