Weather Icon Woes

Hi, Brian…

I have set up WD to use custom icons, but there are times and places where the standard WD icons appear instead.

Normally, the summary.gif and Chesler.gif and metar2.gif through metar6.gif pictures use the custom icons. Except when it is raining, stopped raining, etc. Then I get the WD standard icons.

Also, it seems that metar.gif, the “primary” metar always uses the WD standard icons.

Is there a problem or have I missed a setting somewhere?

there must be rain icon in wd that is not updated by when you use your own icons
under input daily weather, do you have that wd rain icon visible at all?

I have the same issue - for me that icon is not visible in input daily weather

Under “Input Daily Weather” the only icon I have not replaced is the last one, for Tornado.

All the other 29 icons are the ones I put in the “myicons” directory under the wdisplay directory.

I like this set because the description is part of the icon itself.

ok, i need to do a match up, and check/see which icons are not replaced by replacing all the ones under input daily weather

but to make that easier for me, zip and email me your whole myicons folder
so i can duplicate
thanks

It’s on the way. I forgot whose icons those are, but they came from this board. I like them.

Thanks.

uploading 10.19q now
to fix this
and you can now set your own lightrain, stopped raining, and windy rain icons
under input daily weather

Give credit where credit is due… CarterLake created those icons. Now everyone has to go back and make 3 more for these newly defined conditions.

BTW - I can not open the “Windy Rain” icon. (I am using VNC from work but…) When I mouse over it, there is no description popping up, and when I double click on it, no file window opens.
