Visible winddirection


@ ALL,

In the file 'city.txt' is a line like this:   this.swWindD = "NNE"

Is there a possibility to use this line with var=..  and the if...else statement to import the corresponding pic?
(http://img135.exs.cx/img135/1448/winddirection028pr.jpg)

• If the answer is 'yes', can someone give me an example of the right text lines? After making the right text-lines, I plan to make all the corresponding pics, in that case.
• If the answer is 'no', please let me know!


Thanks!
Timmy

Timmy:

 At this moment, answer is "no. :oops:

 AFAIK, there is no known TP code can assign wind direction to var.

 But, Wichtel might have some idea..

 But, Wichtel might have some idea..

Sorry, no Idea :knownot:

Timmy:

 I have some progress, but  don't know how far can we go.  I applied my stock quote idea (update skin automatically) to add a code at the end of the skin.  Again a exe ( :oops: ) can do following things.

1) Extract wind direction from city1.txt
2) Calculate wind index. (N=1, S=2, W=3 and E=4, if the wind is NEE, then index = 144).
3) Write a code "storevar,var4=144" at the end of the skin (just above the last code).

In thre skin, you just need add "image,x,y,wd%var4%.png,t", then you can have different wind direction image based on your var4 value.

This exe can be delayed until the update finish.

Here is fun part for you.  We could have up 3 characters (NEE) in wind direction, so ideally we need around 64 different image to represent different wind direction.

I also need to figure out a way to get different codes for different city.

So, how do you think?

UK_skinner,
Thanks for giving your thoughts to us!!! I like the way you work with your inventive mind!!!

Quote from: "uk_skinner"I applied my stock quote idea (update skin automatically) to add a code at the end of the skin.  

Is this necesarry? The cit1.txt is already automatically downloaded, though?

Looks good to me. Give it a try!!! And ehhh... I love your 'exes'... The more, the better! They can do things, that aren't possible with TodayPlus!

For my information: this var can be used by TodayPlus?!? How does it come in the skin.txt file?!?

Whow! If you succeed, I begin with these mass-produced pics...

HHmm... They are in the City1.txt the City2.txt and City3.txt files, aren't they? Or do you have other plans???

Timmy

Quote from: "Timmy"Is this necesarry? The cit1.txt is already automatically downloaded, though?

Sorry, I did not make it clear.

I was talking about to "update" the skin not city1.txt.  This is a "risk" idea.  When you are running TP, you have a "fixed"/"Static" skin.  In other words, whenever you update your weather/RSS information or radar image, the TP codes in the skin remained the same.

And we ususally edit the skin on PC/PPC then loaded into PPC manually.

This idea invovled a "automatic" step to create TP codes based on the information from city1.txt.  Since there is no TP code can do that, I have to use a third party exe to do that.  And exe will "automatically" edit the codes in the skin.

Here are the step-by-step how the exe does the job.

1) Open city1.txt and extract wind direction then calculate wind index.
2) Open skin file and edit the specific TP code in the skin. In this case, exe will find "storevar,var4=0" and rewrite into "storevar,var4=1" (1 is the wind index from step 1).
3) Close the skin file.

Once you have the var4 changed whenever your city1.txt updated, then a simple "image,x,y,%avr4%,t" can display the image according to your wind index.

Risk: At this moment, I have tested several times and only the code (storevar,var4=..) was re-written everytime.  However, I would like test more times to make sure, it will not add any other "un-desired" things into skin.

UK_skinner,

Thanks for your patient explanation: now I understand what you realy mean. And I must say, that it's amazing!!!

It's the first time I've seen someone changing automaticaly a part of the skin.exe file. It gave us several opportunities to do other things... Don't tell Wichtel, because he shall bomb you with much more unexpected wishes...

UK-skinner, you had a wild idea, but I've the feeling it's an idea that shall amaze ALL the real skinners! THANKS!!!

Timmy

Timmy:

  Thanks for your compliment.  I am just a kid with some wild dream.. :oops:

  Again, this is just one of temporary solutions while we are waiting srs come back.  Maybe one day, he will show up and say "no need for these small exe, I have put these functions in TP".. :pray:

 You have your own skin, right?  If you want to test it, please email me the skin and tell me where you want to the code.  Also I need a var for wind index.  I could look at your skin and to see I can find one.

Done!

If there's a place you need for the .exe: \Program Files\...

Timmy:

 Got it.

1) I need the file pathway of your skin.
2) I assumed you would like to display wind dir image in region,3 right?
3) var31 currently is not used in your skin.  So I will use it for wind index.

UK_skinner,

1)   \Program Files\TodayPlus\Skins\...
2)   REGION 3 - PAGE 100
3)   OK

Good Luck!

Thanks!
Timmy

PS
Not all the winddirections are with three characters, it also can be with one, or two. Is that a problem?!?

Please check your PM...

Quote from: "uk_skinner"Please check your PM...

Arrived!!! This evening is the 'try-out'!

UK_skinner,

In two words:
Clever done!

My experiences with your new feature:
• everything worked well from the beginning
• your .exe does its work in a split-second!!!
• after doing it's work, your program says: "update done"
• looking in my skin file I see the var is changed right

Skintext in Wordpad
SSE  gives:
//Wind Direction Index
storevar,var31=3224

NE   gives:
//Wind Direction Index
storevar,var31=314


S   gives:
//Wind Direction Index
storevar,var31=32


Skintext in Windows WORD
SSE  gives:
//Wind Direction Index
storevar,var31=3224

NE   gives:
//Wind Direction Index
storevar,var31=314

S   gives:
//Wind Direction Index
storevar,var31=32

Two questions come up:
1) What are those signs (=alt 0157)? How do they come there? Do you have found an explanation in the meantime?
2) Is the first 3 of var31=..    wrong?

Thanks for your time, UK_skinner!
Timmy

Timmy, we have the problem.

My OS is English and yours is not right.

There were extra character "2" after "var31=".

SSE  gives:
//Wind Direction Index
storevar,var31=3224  ----> should be 224

NE   gives:
//Wind Direction Index
storevar,var31=314  --->should be 14

S   gives:
//Wind Direction Index
storevar,var31=32 --->should be 2

:wall:  :wall:
Let me check something and I will get back to you...

UK_skinner,

Just for your information: I made a screendump of my 'About' page.

Timmy

Timmy:

 So your OS is English too?  

 That is odd, the exe I sent to you updated here fine and did not see any extra "2"????

I think that we mean the same thing: the extra "3", right? (not the "2").

EDIT: STOP thinking about this problem!!!! I stopped my PocketPC, put it again in the cradle, the PPC went on and synchronised, I clicked on your new .exe again, and now everything is OK! It's SSW here and I got the right var: 223!

Do you understand our PPC's?!?!? I not...  :?  :?  :?

Timmy

Timmy, I sent you a second one before I saw your post.  Just keep that one as back-up..

So if the skin updated correctly, then you start can do some your test.  Just put the image code and to see you can get the wind direction image updated using the exe.  I will start to find a way to see you can get not only for city1 but for others.  Also I assumed that you want to be able to do this automatically right?

UK_skinner,

I'm realy sorry for you, you did those things like thinking, sending me a second .exe and so on! Sorry for your wasted time!!! (I've told my dear Toshiba not to do those strange things again...)

I'm not fast in programming the skin-file, so give me some time to fix it. That's the first thing of my todo-list. The second thing of my todo-list is making the wind-direction icons.

It makes me smile to see you guessed my thoughts before I wrote them down: 'I will start to find a way to see you can get not only for city1 but for others.  Also I assumed that you want to be able to do this automatically right?'  :D  :D  :D You're totally right!!!

Thanks again for the things you do!

Maybe in the var-key like mentioned in this thread:

f.ex. create values winddir1, winddir2, winddir3 ... for the cities, so you could

Well, I'm interested in this feature too  :D , but it would be much easier
to handle, if uk_skinner could find out, how to store the values in the
keys I mentioned. So you could get the value by:

calcvar,varx,fromconfig,winddir1   ... winddir2 and so on.

@uk_skinner: Did you see my edited post  ? Can you make that possible ?

Edit: Just a second idea: Get the value from numcities of the registry in your exe
and then create as many keys as you have cities to get
winddir / windspeed from every city.

@Timmy: When you make your grafics for windspeed, you should name
the grafic like the values of the var's. F.ex. NEE=144 --> 144.bmp
Then it is really easy to get the grafik with less code. :)

Example:

load,city,%var0%
calcvar,var4,fromconfig,winddir%var0%
image,0,0,%var4%.bmp,t

Hope, that works
Greetings Broesel

@Uk_skinner,

Your mail did arrive well. Thanks! This evening I'm gonna try your exe. Pretty work to do!!!


@Broesel,

I'm glad you came in the discussions! This is the right place for you and most of your TodayPlus-wishes. Thanks for active coming by!
Also thank you for your good tips! Is appreciated!


Timmy

O.K. some more to the winddirections:

You can get 16 values:

N          =        1
NNE      =     114  
NE        =       14
ENE      =      414
E          =         4  
ESE      =      424
SE        =       24
SSE      =     224
S          =        2
SSW     =     223
SW       =      23
WSW    =     323
W         =        3
WNW    =      313
NW       =        13
NNW     =      113

That's, what you need grafic for ....

In Europe most countries use Beaufort in stead of M/hr or Km/hr. A table you can find here:

Well, if we have the possibility to calculate with the values we can (nearly)
do everything. If you want to make it in the exe, no problem, but then
maybe you should use another var for the results.

And I have no problem giving away the code, I've used.

I think so, if it's more then 117 km/h it should be 12 Bft

Broesel

Should not be "if,var,var12,,>,117"????

Uk_skinner,

It's very busy on the board today... And that's due to the great brainwave you and Broesel had today. Still no headache?????  :wink:


Uk_skinner, I just got your latest TpRegistryWind.exe and tried this version, too. This version gave an error report:
city1.txt
Could not open buffer file!
I click on OK and this error report goes away. But the program icon of the .exe still is there (at the top bar). I click on the icon, and a new report says:TP Registry Key
Update Done
I click OK, and the screen is like it was before the trial.

Hope, this report helps you!

Timmy

Timmy:

 Well, you just gave me a headach... :wall:  :wall:

Oh :doh:...You don't have BasePath??? :?:

On my divce, the lastDir=\Program Files\TodayPlus.  What version of TP are you running?  Could you please go to Configure, tap on "Base Path" then select your base pathway.  Close it, and check the key again, to see you get "BasePath" key..

Thanks to Broesels screendump: I don't have a BasePath line.

For your information: I use version 11, like you. In the Configuration file I have chosen as Base Directory  \Start Menu\Microsoft

EDIT nr. 1: Now I have a BasePath too:  \Windows\Start Menu\Microsoft
EDIT nr. 2: Now the last version work well! NO PROBLEMS! Everything is OK!!! I thank the PPC-doctors for their right medicine!!!

Ok, sent a new one.

It will add the wind direction index and speed for "ALL the Cities" into registry key.  However, I saw "non-standard" word for wind direction, such as "VAR", "CALM".  I need to look into it later.

Yes, worked fine for all my 5 cities  :D

Well for the other values I suggest you giving numbers starting from
999 down. Example:

VAR = 999
CALM = 998

If there are some more values we can go down with the values
and get some graphics to that numbers.

Broesel

Ok, I am going to put a delay in the exe.  Since this exe extracts the infromation from cityx.txt so ideally it needs to do the job after the "updating" finishes in TP.  How long you think is enough....

Alternatively you can make a shortcut can be triggered by a button.

Well, can you get the delay from a registry-var or maybe better from a txt-file like in Radar.txt ?
So everybody can try and see how long the update takes and change the value.
For me I think it's about 20 - 40 seconds.

Timmy:

 Just an idea.
 Can we just have a background image, like we did in the analogue clock.  We just have different "pointers" for different wind index.  Then just overlay the pointers on the background image.  In that way, you change background easily also the total size will much smaller, isn't it?

Uk_skinner,

That's possible to do, I can make several backgrounds, also in several languages. Only the pointers for the different winddirections are in the other pics.

What does our Weatherman Broesel think of it?

I think it is time to move this thread over to "Developer's Corner".

a background that can be changed. From your screenshots i like

@Uk_skinner & @Broesel,
I follow your tip. I'll make several backgrounds, ready for English, German, Dutch and French.

Sorry, Timmy, that doesn't work with a command, so you have to do
them manually. I suggest doing lt like you did with the complete graphics.
(Means the "winddirection-hands" have to be named like the var's)

Oh, and you need graphics for the other values for "var" (variable winddirections)
and "calm" (windstill in German) as far as we know for now. As I suggested to uk_skinner with
numbers like 999, 998 and so on ...

Broesel:

 I think I found my option 1).  The exe can be executed after weather information updated........ :wink:

 I need the suggestion/idea.  Because every user will have different exe tight to weather updating.  For example, USA users might need only TpRegistryWind (not for speed/visibility) to get wind index for Wind direction image.  And European users would like to have TpSkyTranslate too.  And I will try to get Translated Wind direction for French users.  I could put this delay mechanism in each of exe but that would be waste of space.  

 My idea is to break down into individual "modual/exe" then users can assign the modual they wish to run into a shortcut group (let's Apps9) in configure.  Then I can have a master exe to start all the exe after it detects weather information updateing finish.

Well, you are totally right, English and US-Users won't need to translate
the weathertextes. I think that's a good idea, if the master-exe can be
configured to run several exe's.

It's really cool, what you do here  :lol:

@UK_skinner,

• Just for your information: the pics are ready, jhollin1138 made a new thread for them.
• Just for your information: I've tested your lasest .exe several times now. I didn't met problems, your .exe is very stabile ànd very fast!!
• Request NR. 1: I prefer a TOTAL.exe that can read our personal information in an .txt or .ini file. In that .txt or .ini file everybody can change his own preferences. You can upgrade later with several new features easely than, with no problems for the users.
• Request NR. 2: We are just in the beginning of doing these things. Maybe it's better to understand for new users if we change:
windir --> winddir
windsd --> windspeed


@Uk_skinner and @ Broesel,

My opinion about your latest .exes: I'm very glad with the things you've discovered last week!!! Really!!! First I need TodayPlus for the POOM, but here I have no further wishes. But second I use TodayPlus for weather, because I'm a real weather-freak, like Broesel... With the things you make ready, I can fullfill more weather-wishes. Thanks, Uk_skinner! And Broesel, our weatherman: also thanks for your good tips!

  As for your request 1, yes, the TpExeDelay.exe will load the exe from a text file. The word change will be made in next update.

Uk-skinner,

Maybe we mean the same things, but for the securety I'll explain what I mean in request 1. Because my request is broader/wider than only your TpExeDelay.exe  ...

I hope it will be possible to make a Total.exe that can do all the things (or as much as posible) you've made the last week, and maybe the coming period. So: a total programm, with as much of your new features (radar, registry, translations and so on) in it as possible.

But as we all live in different countries and all have different wishes, we only use the things of your Total.exe that we need or wish. We can arrange this in a Total.ini or Total.txt file. Your Total.exe is reading this information and does the things the user asked in the Total.ini or Total.txt file. This would be a nice feature for all TodayPluskinners!

I hope I explained well what my request is. Is this possible to do for you? Now or in the future?

Timmy

Timmy:

 Pardon my English...So...

 That is probably similiar thing what I did in TpExeDelay, I assumed you read the new thread I jus posted this morning (GMT-5).

 In this exe, it will load exe from the .txt file where you have all your exe you wish to be launched after weather information updated.  Radar.exe can be launched in thsi way although it is not necessary.

Is this what you call total.exe?

Pardon me, too... The things are going too fast here the last week... I'll beter read your new thread!!!

Now I'm sure: we talk about the same thing.  Your intentions with TpExeDelay are the same as my intentions with Total.exe. But the word 'delay' did set me 'on my wrong leg' as we say in the Netherlands... Thanks for your explanation!

@Broesel / @Uk_skinner,

I'm using this coding from Broesel to convert the visibility to km, in stead of miles:
load,city,%var0%
calcvar,var11,fromconfig,c%var0%vis
calcvar,var11,*,%var11%,1609
calcvar,var11,/,%var11%,1000
text,112,26,Zicht: ,l
text,138,26,%var11% km,l

But I noticed that the result is only 0 km. Does one of you know what's wrong in these textlines?!?

Timmy

Quote from: "Timmy"I noticed that the result is only 0 km. Does one of you know what's wrong in these textlines?!?

Yes, I noticed that too sometimes, but first take a look at your cityx.txt
What is the value for vis there ? If there is no value, it will be "" and the
var will deliver 0.

The second problem is, that we can't calculate with decimalpoints in T+,
so the values are not really exact. I helped me with another formula,
so there come meaningfully values. And there can be other values like
999.00 what means, visibility is unlimited, so I use:


calcvar,var11,fromconfig,c%var9%vis
if,var,var11,,<1
text,203,152,< 1 km,r
else
if,var,var11,,=,999
text,203,152,unlimited,r
else
calcvar,var11,*,%var11%,1667
calcvar,var11,/,%var11%,1000
text,203,152,km,r
text,184,152,~%var11%,r
endif
endif


Greetings Broesel

May be I can put the calculation in exe then you can have decimal points, but this need to written into text not var. Let me know if you want to try this way.

Quote from: "uk_skinner"May be I can put the calculation in exe then you can have decimal points, but this need to written into text not var. Let me know if you want to try this way.

Well, after some testing of the *.exe I think I have some wishes too,
but I have to think over some of them, so when I'm clear, i will contact
you if it's o.k.
And the result of the calculation don't have to be with decimal points
but if we get values like 9.9967 km it should be rounded to 10, so
the var is an integer again and can be stored as a var. I will give you my
thoughts, when your headache is gone :D :D :D

 Is there any way you could do things like this?

1)  In temperature, it is possible to have gradient just like the one we have in power and memory, right?

2) In the winds, we can have the number in the center of circle and red point to the direction.  And the text of wind direction at the bottom.  For European, you can put the "Beaufort" meter at the right.

There is no gradient for the temperature. The only thing i think we can
have is a horizontal bar with the temperature with the barmeter-command
(if the values for temperature are stored in a variable)

barmeter,<x>,<y>,<width>,<height>,<bar image>,<current value>,<minimum value>,<maximum value>

Quote2) In the winds, we can have the number in the center of circle and red point to the direction.  And the text of wind direction at the bottom.  For European, you can put the "Beaufort" meter at the right.

• I can make a new sery of winddirectionbackground, as you can see in the atachement. Are there people interested in having them? Please, let me know!

•  Making a gradient pic for temperature isn't very hard to do, but what's hard to do for me is writing the right textlines. About a year ago Broesel had done things like this for the moonsize. I still use the textlines he wrote. So my suggestion is: first someone has to write the right textlines, then I make the right pics.

Well, I'll try my very best, but this will be hard to do, because we can't
have vertical bars for the temperature. Also the range in Celsius will be
hard to code into bars. But i will try to make horizontal bars, don't know,
if that looks good, but we will see ...

Timmy

Quote from: "Timmy"
Question: is there realy no way of making this vertical?!? Like the Wiabar Advance batterymeter?!?

No, I can't do that with a barmeter, the only way, I could think off,
is a picture for every temperature (like the winddirection), so this
would work like winddir with a pic for every variable-value.
So if we assume a value in Celsius from -20 to + 40 that would be
60 pictures for that. I think, that is a little much stuff ?
Okay, if you won't have it that much accurate maybe wit a value every
2 degrees it would be about 30 pic's.

I was thinking that too.  But we need to get temperature into registry key, isn't it?

Yes, we do  8)

I created them with a registryeditor and putted values to test into them.

Question: is there realy no way of making this vertical?!? Like the Wiabar Advance batterymeter?!?

No, I can't do that with a barmeter, the only way, I could think off,
is a picture for every temperature (like the winddirection), so this
would work like winddir with a pic for every variable-value.
So if we assume a value in Celsius from -20 to + 40 that would be
60 pictures for that. I think, that is a little much stuff ?
Okay, if you won't have it that much accurate maybe wit a value every
2 degrees it would be about 30 pic's.

Broesel,

I'll put it on my To-do-list. But first I'm working out the new winddirection backgrounds. Hope to finish them this weekend.

By the way: I've just finished a  new serie of weather icons (http://www.todaysxtra.com/smf/index.php?topic=279.0). Hope, people like them!

@Broesel and @other members,

I was looking at the thermometer, too. But there are some problems. It's not possible to make ànd a little pic, ànd at the same time enough readable measure-lines. So it don't add no valuable things to the PocketPC screen, and it's only wasted space.

But nevertheless I'm willing to make a thermometer for the interested members. Please let me know if you're interested.

Well, Timmy, I think for now it is not neccessary to make that pics
(well not for me of course), when I get time, I will test a little more
with the barmeter, we'll see ....

Thanks for asking
