In the autoscale setup you have the posibillity to add/change extra graphs.
If I change the first one (customise #1) it is changing the main graph wich is originally the windspeed barometer. This goes for the customise #2 aswell. It changes the temperature/humidity.
The 3rd is working fine and with the 4th you change the Special sensor.
I can not change the header of the first and the second. only remove the first one.
Just so you know, you’re not the only one with this problem. I’ve pretty much given up on the autoscale graphs. I just wish I could say this is the only feature that I’ve about given up on. I am very impressed with Brian’s dedication to this program and his support, but I rather wish more time was spent on the ease of use for the newbie than the new bells and whistles. The new control panel is great, but things that I think should be easy, such as entering snow totals or correcting rain errors have turned into a major nightmare of frustration for me.
As for the subject of this topic, I’ve also been unable to get the indoor options to work. I check the box, but the graph does no change, or changes to something completely different. There was also the problem where selecting parameters seemed to be opposite be backwards as to what was drawn on the graph. Unfortunately this is all from memory at the moment as I’ve been avoiding this option.
i have been working on the snow input issue,as time permits (its a veey busy time of year at the moment with school activities, etc) but sorry you have given up on that.
the issues with the autoscale graphs can be worked through and fixed, but I see you have given up on that too without even contacting me etc…you just post here that you gave up and didnt give me a chance to help or fix…Tarms…a bit strange…
I am here to help and more than happy to work with people on issues , etc, and to fix things, etc, but just saying you have gave up on something without me even having a chance to work with you on it is a bit odd
Sorry my frustration got the best of me. It has been a bad work stretch, and this time of year just makes it worse. That aside, I was going to post, but not until I had organized my thoughts enough to come up with specific questions vs lists of frustrations. I keep thinking the answers should already be somewhere on this board, and I have found some by searching here. Just a bit overwhelmed at the moment.
yes, its a very stressfull time of year for everyone
just let me know what you are trying to achieve and what is not working, and I will work on those issues.
i will look into the problem pointed out here with the autoscale graphs now
I too have had frustration with the auto scale graphs. BUT I think I can figure them out. Sure there are some quirks using them but, Give Brian some time. I think he has to get his sleigh ready for his ride. Personally, I think Santa moved to New Zealand for the summer months, and yes, I think I need some mead. #-o
But just let Brian know what needs to be done and he will put it on his to do list and it will be done in time. Looking at the complexity of his software, I am afraid to ask how many lines of code there might be. Give the lad a chance.
a nbew 10.20L will be ready soon to have inches on the snow graph
such as entering snow totals
you can edit the logfile which has the snow totals for each day of the month, directly
i.e 122004lg2.txt
the values there are stored as cm
but do not have any units (i.e the word cm), etc, just have a number only
correcting rain errors have
well, you can do it directly, via opening up the current log file (i.e 122004lg.txt).
then , say for midnight reset, use the find in notepad.exe, or similar, and search for 23 59
then set the correct rain total for the day at the line of data
that will easily and quickly fix the rain totals that you see under view, averages/extreme, for each day
i will do some testing on the correct the data setup, under view, averages/extreme, now
I know Brian is working hard on improvements, but i have to agree that the program is a bit complicated for new users.
The best thing to do is… Do not give up and take it one step at the time.
When i started with wd somewhere in the 9 version I had the same problem to understand the program.
Give it some time and you will see the issues will be solved.
actualy if you guys could email me your settings, and what is not working, then that will help me to fix it
(go action, back up registry now, then email me the files wdisplay.ini and wdisplayftp.reg from the sub folder databackup, thanks
a new 10.20m is ready
which reduces the confusion with the customise the auto scale graphs
and you can now set the title on the customised 1 and 2 graphs (see in the customise setup panel)
(i.e the barowind and temphum graphs)
Thought that is was designed that way, but was not sure.
If I understood correctly… the extra graph 1 will show the same value as the autoscale windbaro and the extra graph 2 will show the same value autoscale temphum?
But this can be done on a different scale? (e.g winbaro 12h and graph1 24h)
If I understood correctly... the extra graph 1 will show the same value as the autoscale windbaro and the extra graph 2 will show the same value autoscale temphum?
no...
if you use the custom autoscale graph, then you dont have a normal barowind graph anymore (unless you so happen to select to plot wind againnst barometer)
same for the temphum graph (i.e it will plot what you select in the 2nd down from the top customise button)
the extra temp 1 and extra temp 2 graphs stay as they are, but you can customise the extra temp 3 and extra temp 4 auto scale graphs (do that if you want to still have a normal wind/baro and temp/hum graph)
basicly you have 4 graphs to customise
the top 2, then miss 2, then the bottom 2
dont ask me why its like that, i must have been half brain dead at the time
