What is new in 6.1.15 software version? -
- ADDED: "Display balloon tip when weather station is unavailable" to "Advanced" section of Weather Watcher Live Options to allow the notification to be suppressed.
- ADDED: "Display upcoming daily conditions icons in tooltip" to "Advanced" section of Weather Watcher Live Options. If using the hourly icon option, daily icons will be displayed when viewing a weather station that is located outside of the US.
- ADDED: "Map Zoom Level" setting to the Splendid and Splendid2 skin settings to allow the map in the NOW section to be zoomed to different levels. Click the "SETTINGS" link at the bottom, right corner of the main Weather Watcher Live window to access the skin settings.
- ADDED: "Low" column in the Daily section of the Splendid2 skin for weather stations outside of the US.
- FIXED: The slider at the bottom of the Splendid and Splendid2 skins was not displaying icons when Internet Explorer 6 was installed. FYI, the best fix for this issue is to install the latest Windows updates (including all Internet Explorer updates).
- FIXED: In the Splendid2 skin, the "Currently" icon in the NOW section was displaying the icon for the current day instead of the current condition for weather stations outside of the US.
- FIXED: Wind speed was always displaying as "0" in the Splend2 skin's wind gauge when the Windows regional settings were using a comma for the tenths place separator.
- FIXED: If using a Tray Icon skin of PNG images, the current condition icon (if enabled) was displaying the temperature in the system tray instead of the condition icon. To work around this issue, the WeatherBug Tray Icon skin's icons will automatically be used whenever a PNG Tray Icon skin is selected.
