Problems with tags

Brian:

After choosing tags not to include the units used, the following happened:

  • some wind and rain data still includes the units, but that’s not a big deal;
  • the pressure tags %baro%, %highbaro%, %lowbaro% and %trend%, the ones I use, become strange, as the decimal doesn’t appear; for exemple, it gives “1019.” (%baro%), or “0.” (%trend%); however, another tag I use, %pressurechangein6hours%, appears to be ok.

Thanks again
Cheers

I had the same problem myself. I now use the following tags:-
Current barometric pressure %currentpressureinmb%
High barometric pressure %maxbaroinmetric%
Low barometric pressure %minbaroinmetric%

This way you dont get a 1030. figure with no decimal. :smiley:

Thank you, Shaun. I’m going to try it now. The trend will still remain “undecimaled” :wink:, but it could be worse…

After all, Shaun, there’s also a “pressurechangehourinmb”, to achieve the wanted results.

Thanks again

yeah, those tags use what is on the screen…but that has units, so wd tehn tries to strip off the units…but it must be over doing it…maybe you only have mb instead of hpa?
anyway, i should write more code and not do it that way…
but, yes, there are other tags to use, specific for metric…or US units :slight_smile:

Yeah, where’s a way, there’s always a way, and with the other (metric)tags I got what I needed. :lol:

Thanks again, Shaun and Brian
