Weathercat client under MacOS Big Sur
« on: January 14, 2021, 11:22:32 PM »
The Weathercat client has been working nicely for me, but I recently installed MacOS Big Sur.  The client now loads OK and displays for a few seconds until the gauges start to flicker rapidly from visible to blank (i.e. just blank grey space where the gauge should be).  They are mostly blank and visible too briefly to read.  Is it just coincidence that this has happened after the MacOS upgrade?  Client v2.0.0 which I think is the latest, MacOS 11.1.  Any advice much appreciated.

Known issue. Also, WeatherCat Banner Generator does not work under Big Sur.
