What it is:
Tabs-240 - An updated WeatherPanel theme to fit the Treo's 240x240 screen resolution. This one is based on a theme called TABS, developed by Ken of
www.weatherpanel.net fame. Here is a link to the original theme:
http://pixel.citadel.org/weatherpanel/wiki/index.php
What's different about it:
1. I added two new Today theme files (based on TabsSmall theme already part of the package):
TabsSmaller(black).wpl and
TabsSmaller(clear).wpl. I compacted them as much as I could (60 pixel height), and improved the "tab" drawing. I also removed the radar tab - there just isn't room to show graphics here.
What makes these different is they each have "tabs" - you can change the Today plug-in display just by clicking on them. The
Graphs tab shows a 24 hourly view of temperature, humidity and chance of precipitation.
2. I reformatted the Detail screens to fit 240x240. A couple are copied from Simple-240. They were "simply" better than what was already there. The real difference is the stats screen. It is also tabbed, and gives you
four different views of the stats.
Note: The settings menu is hidden in each tab. Just click on an already-select tab and you'll get the WeatherPanel settings menu.
How to install it:
Download the attached file and unzip it. Copy the Tabs-240 folder (and files) to your device at
\Program Files\MarsWare\WeatherPanel\Themes (Note: there's a readme file in the zip with more detailed instructions). Then enter the WeatherPanel setup and change the theme to Tabs-240 and, select one of the Tabs-240 layouts (such as TabsSmaller(clear).wpl)
