I’ve been looking at the new detailed rain chart. I appear to have a problem with the totals, where are the Nov and Dec figures coming from
they come from the total under view, rain chart
Hi Brian,
I am seeing a similar thing.
If you look at that chart posted by Stewart, the total for November is the total as from October, and there are no November daily values displayed…and as it is not December yet, where is it finding the total of 0.4 from,along with the 0.0 daily values listed ?
Also just noticed that my chart is displaying – rather than 0.0 for the 31st of every month…mmmm I need to take a closer look at this…
regards
TrevP
Mine is the same,
Not updated to latest version yet, but i have similar error in another rain chart, “the temperature / win / rain trend”, when clicking Year Data. Month 10 and 11 has the same rain amount. The correct rain for month 11 should be 68.7 mm.
same thing Arnt, it gets the data from the rain chart
you need to check what is entered there for those months in question
The rain chart shows correct amount for Oct and Nov, 187.7mm / 68.7mm
i just tried a test here
the numbers i entered for oct and nov showed up in the temp/wind/rain chart when selecting year to date, so i cant duplicate that problem
but .zip and email me your setting file wdisplay.ini and the data file last31daysdata.inf
but which version of wd?
but I am away today
When this first was released… it had as expected — for days that didn’t exist.
The current version has an inconsistent looking chart. For days that don’t exist in the months Feb, April, June September it still has values of 0.00 instead of blank (or —).
The current month of November has no data, just — for every day. While we haven’t had any rain this month, I would expect that the dates 1st - 8th would have 0.00 and the rest perhaps either blank or —.
December which hasn’t arrived yet has 0.00 for every day instead of being blank or — which is the complete opposite of November.
Also confusing overall is that the Detailed Rain Chart counts any day that has any rain, but the clientrawdaily days without Rain value to only count days with at least a specific amount of rain.
According to the Detailed Rain Chart, We had rain in Oct 4th. But the WD didn’t apparently consider that enough rain to change the number of days since it last rained. It says it hasn’t rained for 48 days instead of 36 the Rain chart shows.
482 Days with No Rain L 48
yes, there is something wrong with the current month and next month, I will check that out
and yes,I can get it to use the setting for rain threshold since you need that
update:
http://www.weather-display.com/downloadfiles/WeatherD.zip
build 11
fixes this month not showing data (was line of code bug)
and fixes next month not being — (happened when I added a check for negative results)
I updated to bld 11. This is the result for me. There is rainfall for November but we haven’t had any. Also some days show dashes for no rain. Some days show 0’s for no rain. The “Rain To Date” chart is correct. August total line shows .378 of rain yet the detail for each day shows none.
upgraded to revision 11, still getting wrong totals Nov Dec, has this been addressed yet or am I jumping the gun.
Does it actually say build 11 from the WD help menu? I downloaded from Brian’s link but shows build 10 here…
Strange…it does say build 10. Did we get an incorrect link?
I tried the link Brian posted and also from the main download page and both say build 10. Either Brian misspoke about build 11 or we are not getting the right file downloaded…hard to say…I do know that the version I have still shows the same problem with rain totals where there is no rain amounts.
i had a compiler crash and so the version change was lost
it is build 11
what are your totals like under view, rain chart for Nov/dec?
Here’s mine…
add: I will repost with a better image…
Here’s mine. As you can see additionally, the last day of each month is missing. The gap in the May data from 17th to 25th, my PC was off. September 1st and 2nd as well.
if you have gaps then wd was not able to find the data (I dont have gaps myself (wd runs until I upgrade it)
yours looks ok Dan, yes?
(a bit hard to see it)
