[Mobile Shell 3.0 Widget] WeatherPanel (with current conditions)

Sounds like the default layout is opening instead of the PhatPhinger layout. I'll check the PhatPhinger WQVGA skin and see if there's a simple tweak.

In your WeatherPanel settings, which layout are you using for the WeatherPanel Today plugin?

storyr - I have a glitch. More of an annoyance than anything...

A lot of the time when I click the widget, it pops up the screen saying Loading WeatherPanel, but it immediately closes the notification and WP never comes up. It will continue to do this until I go back to the Today screen and open WP from there. Then, after that, the widget works fine again.

I am running WP in a tab of Pocket Plus. Could that be causing this? Any known issues with running TP in the pocket plus tab as it related to the MS widget?

WP is running in today using the PhatPhinger II theme and I've tried a bunch of the layouts - currently on Phat + 162. When I click the widget, I get the below screen. It allows me to scroll from "current" to "forecast" by individual days, but there's no way for me to access the popups for other functions, such as radar, full multi-day forecast, etc.

Btw thanks agian for all of your help and quick responses!

   + Revamped "widget injector" to use Rar instead of Total
     Commander (thanks to Strops over at Spb Club)
 
   + Streamlined install - widget injector and configuration are
     now part of the initial CAB install.

Hopefully this version will solve the injector issues some folks were having. I moved away from Total Commander and am now using Rar (WinRar for Pocket PC). There's no need to manipulate screens, as Rar has command line parameters to accomplish the task.

The installation is now a one-step process - it runs the injector and configurator automatically.

Let me know how it goes...

THANKs storyr

workes fine in my FLAME VGA
if possibal to add more choices to chose icons from WP file

I've seen the same behavior. It looks like the WeatherPanel plugin, when not refreshed for a long period of time, gets into a state where the "mouse click" that WP-Activate sends doesn't work.

I think I can address this in the refresh script - Mortscript has a command to refresh the Today screen...

This is a limitation with PhatPhinger II. I'm about half-way done with converting PhatPhinger IV to WQVGA - it has all of the functions available in the pop-ups.

As an alternative, you can change the link that WP-Activate opens to the Show Today link. That way, you can use the Today plugin itself to open the popups.

See post #4 for more information. Change the link to:

Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Spb Mobile Shell\[Show Today].lnk

I did not have this issue until I read this. Thanks. I did not have Pocket Plus running on my Today screen but I did turn it on yesterday only for the Call Filter.

Storyr, this is my first time posting on this topic, so great job as usual. My question, is there a way to make the icons bigger. I'd like to see it doubled in size. I will do the resizing if you point me in the right direction. not sure how to access the icon files..

Will this widget work with rumbal animated icons?

Thanks
