%pressuretrendname% tag

Brian,

The %pressuretrendname% tag always shows steady, even if the pressure falls or rises for more than 0.6 hPa/hr.

The same happends to me, but maybe Brian has made it change only at a greater positive or negative rate…? Till now, and since Brian changed the code after I mentioned a small bug, I didn’t have a rate superior to (-) or (+) 0.8mb/hr, so there is not enough time for me to get into conclusions.

Hmm, could be… If it is like that I find the previous setting much better, else he maybe can add a user selectable setting to increase or decrease the sensibility…

Yeah… it would be nice. Let’s hope Brian agrees.

Cheers

the trend is for the last hour…
but if the barometer went down, but then came up again, in the last hour, and was similar to what it was an hour ago, then it will be steady, even though it is rising…
so there is that problem…
if less than 1hpa change, then its reported as steady…
but i could make that threshold user adjustable
a change of 3hpa is a rapid change

Ok, thanks for the user-adjustable setting. But yesterday it was stormy weather and the barmoter dropped 3 hPa/hour and more but the tag still showed steady. There was no rising of pressure within the hour but the pressure keeped falling…

Hi Brian,

Did you already had the time to add a treshold for the trend? If so, where can I find the setting?

Thanks!

just adding this threshold setting to the units setup now
will upload as a new version soon

windy2 · July 9, 2004, 12:37am

i have added where you can set the threshold now in 10.13w, in the units setup

Koen_De_Vuyst · July 9, 2004, 6:34am

Ok, found ethe settings but I wonder how it works I want to set the sensitivity by 0.5 hPa but the values decreases from 0 to -4. What does the fine tuning do? How does it work?

windy2 · July 9, 2004, 6:37am

set the first one as 0 and the second one as 5

that will give it a 0.5 hpa change will say rising or falling
it should work

windy2 · July 9, 2004, 6:39am

ah
i see now
the increment was set at 5 instead of 1
uploading a fresh version now

Koen_De_Vuyst · July 9, 2004, 6:43am

set the first one as 0 and the second one as 5
that will give it a 0.5 hpa change will say rising or falling
it should work

I thought it was meant to work like that

Thanks for the fix!
