Changes for v1.8.1 - v1.8.2

  • "Feels like" temps of zero degrees would display as N/A. (Thanks, mhh)



Changes for v1.8.0 - v1.8.1

  • Tray icon options have changed. You can now display either or both icons.
  • Added a small delay when updating location time.
  • On a delayed startup, tray icon was showing blank instead of the N/A icon.



Changes for v1.7.9 - v1.8.0

  • Another bugfix:
  •  Reduced the number of times the TimezoneDB API was queried.



Changes for v1.6.8 - v1.6.9

  • "Full forecast" links were broken. (Thanks, Midnight Rambler)



Changes for v1.6.5 - v1.6.6

  • Small cosmetic change. Made the statusbar say "Last provider update was at: " to, hopefully, reduce confusion as to when the weather data was last updated by Yahoo!. Currently, that seems to be every two hours.



Changes for v1.6.4 - v1.6.5

  • + Added a new link on the main form to go directly to the radar page of the currently selected location.
  • * Changed the "Full forecast: Click here" link to "Links: Full forecast"
  • - It doesn't look like the old API access is coming back so I've removed the option added in v1.6.3.



Changes for v1.6.2 - v1.6.3

  • + Due to Yahoo!-realted issues with the new API, I've added a workaround
  • option to use the old API. This option is enabled by default. That said,
  • while the older API seems to be much more reliable, I cannot guarantee how
  • long Yahoo! will make it available. Maybe this workaround will buy enough
  • time for Yahoo! to get their stuff together regarding the new API. Please
  • note that the data is slightly different between the two APIs and that the
  • "Full forecast" link doesn't appear to provide proper links when using the
  • old API.
  • * Prettied up the Options dialog with some icons.
  • * Made the main form display missing data more elegantly.



Changes for v1.5.3 - v1.5.5

  • + Added a "Use https:// (SSL) when possible" option. (Thanks, Mimori)
  • v1.5.4 - 2014-12-15
  • + Added 'Feels like' temp to the tray tooltip. (Thanks, Ken Z.)
  • ! Hopefully fixed a long-standing bug with the temperature icon not
  • displaying the correct temperature. This had to do with the fact that
  • Windows 7, at least, does not appear to like 1-bit colour icons in the
  • tray. Crazy...



Changes for v1.5.2 - v1.5.3

  • + Added DMS (degree, minute, second) format option for latitude and longitude readings.
  • ! Fixed missing "na.ico" file in the Fat Cow tray condition theme.
  • ! Converted wind speed text string was incorrect.



Changes for v1.5.1 - v1.5.2

  • Refresh timer wasn't set properly after waking up from hibernation.
  • DPI-related fix to saved listview column widths.



Changes for v1.4.9 - v1.5.1

  • ! New date feature introduced in v1.5.0 was off by one. "It was my understanding that there would be no math." =]
  • v1.5.0
  • + Added new option to show the date number in the extended forecast.
  • * In the Options' WOIED list, the highlighted selection will stay visible when using the up/down buttons. You can also now use drag-and-drop to move locations in the list.



Changes for v1.4.8 - v1.4.9

  • + Added two new tray temperature themes, Simple Black & Simple White, courtesy of user lotra.



Changes for v1.4.7 - v1.4.8

  • + Added a hidden INI setting to work around a bug in the System Explorer program from http://systemexplorer.net/. Every time sWeather would get updated weather info, and refresh its tray icons, the "Advanced Window"
  • popup from System Explorer would appear. This bug only appears to happen in Windows XP so, if you're experiencing this, add the following line to the [Settings] section of sWeather's config.ini file, save it, and restart sWeather.
  • Extra_Tray_Refresh=0



Changes for v1.4.5 - v1.4.7

  • * Updated WorldWeatherOnline API-related code. Titlebar timezone data should work again.
  • v1.4.6
  • * sWeather should now be DPI aware and display properly at higher DPI resolutions.



Changes for v1.4.4 - v1.4.5

  • + Added ability to set a global hotkey to refresh the weather data.



Changes for v1.4.3 - v1.4.4

  • Converted temps weren't displaying properly for the entire 10-day forecast.
