The problem was with the HHCv08.cab only. When installing the appearance files, it was installing the same appearance files into each sub-directory (ex. DigitalGlow Aqua clock were being copied into Original, Segoe Bold Grey, etc. in their folder), so all you would get is 1 font even though it was installed in 5 different directories.

If you installed from the zip file, everything is fine as nothing else changed, only the install procedure.


EDIT: tvith, I am able to pull your weather on both my Mogul (via phone data conn.) and on my Apache (via wifi, not activated). Are you manually trying to set it up or are you using the customizer?

for some reason when I go to the appearance-background setting I get a blank option box like no backgrounds are installed. I then went to download backgrounds and it said the file was already on the device and I selected to over-write. still nothing in the box. the folder is named 'bg' and has the correct files in it, but will not show in the option box.

any ideas?

I am having this exact same problem...

The files are there but the Customizer does not see them... Does anyone know why this is happening? I am using a Touch. Thanks.

Just fixed it. The sets were there, my routine for checking got messed up. You can DL the full version or just the patch if you wish.

Not sure if this has been covered but want to know what happens if you set tab order to 0 or to 7 this is what happens.

How?!?!?!

Ok so here's wat I've done so far... I've put the custom city into both the Custom xml file, the Default xml file and even the HH_0409_WeatherCities xml file, I've done it via zip and the other way (Nam|US| so on and so forth) and i've even done it through the customizer... everything was a no go. I even put in a zip 10704 (Yonkers) and it didn't show me, but that town is already listed in the HH_0409_WeatherCities that comes w/ the HTC plug-in. So either i'm doing somethign wrong or my phone is being a biatch, and i'm always gonna blame it on the phone, 'cause i'm too perfect for it to b my fault..hahahahaha.

So yea anyways, I've done it all via Phone Data connection as i don't have a wifi set up at home. *I've been trying to hop on my neighbors but he hasn't come online in a while i think lol*

So anythign else i can provide u that could help u figure out wat i'm doing wrong... Idk if it's somethign i've set up that's messing it up or if i'm putting it in wrong...IDK. or maybe u can just do a step by step of wat u did, and wether u did it through data or wifi and I'll follow that and c if i can get it.

Thanks for testing it out, alteast now i know it's possible to get it and can keep messing w/ it cause there's hope now. Thanks!

You can shrink the png files for the clock font to make them smaller if you wish, but this will not make the plugin take up less space if that's what your wanting to do. Those settings are built into the plugin and would have to be hacked beyond the capabilities of my customizer to get that result.

1. Run HHC and go to Weather Options -> Choose Weather Database and select Custom. This will set the reg entry to redirect and swap out the default database with your custom one.

2. If you haven't already, while your in the Weather Options, choose Add City to Custom Database. This will also let you set the city as your default so when you reload the plugin, it will already be setup for you.

You may have to soft reset the device after this process to make the redirection active. If you already tried this, we'll try something else.

Hope this helps.

Ok so after following this everything works perfect. Now my town is shown in the weather instead of some town that's 45mins away. Thanks...

I guess the key word in ur instruction is def. the SOFT RESET. 'cause before getting thsoe instructions i was doing everything that u stated in steps 1 and 2 but never did a soft reset after changing the Weather Database and adding my city and that's wat my mistake was 'cause after i exited out of the customizer and then did a soft reset, my town was showing in the weather tab..... thanks emunutz

Your work is really great. All the tabs work fine!

But I have a problem with the high of the plug-in (using HTC Universal, VGA device; landscape and portrait mode same problem). I am not able to see the first line (ex. Weather, Sound:Normal) Is it possible to change it somewhere?
