Title: Req: weather and moonphase skin
Post by: Cendaryn on January 21, 2004, 12:02:35 PM
Hi guys!

My problem: I tried for hours to make a skin like the "weather only" (with last update in the headline) in another thread which is also displaying the moonphase. The "weather only" skin is great (with the option to show sunrise/sunset by removing the "//" in front of the code)

Some of you may be laughing now but I wasn't able to get this working. Ok ok I'm not a programmer and I don't know anything about skinmaking. I was proud translating the into german but nothing more.  :shock:

Could anyone of you be so nice and do this skin for me? Kind regards and thanks in advance

Alex

Well, made something for me, maybe you like it ?
It is completely in german and shows Sun/Moon/weather with the option to
close/open the weather by tapping on the sun.

Great! Thank you! but I've a small problem with the moonphase. When refreshing after a few seconds the moonimage turns into the color I use for the lines in the theme  :oops:

whats wrong?

There is nothing wrong ,..  as T+ uses the backgroundcolor in some
graphics it takes the color from the theme you are using...

find the line:

imagemeter,187,2,%var14%,phasen.png,tr,0,7

and insert a line before that command:

color,replacement,0_0_0,-1_6_-1

that changes the backgroundcolor of the moon to black.

In German: look at :

If there is newmoon, can you see it, I can't  :wink:

Try to change your systemdate to another date and look what happens ..

Broesel  :)

I'm not talking about the picture. When I look into the skinfile the first time should be moon rise, the second moon set. But our moon rises in the afternoon and sets in the morning. That was my question :)

Blame me for that guys - I've to use my mother language now to make myself clear:

Broesel, der Mond wird doch erst am Nachmittag/Abend sichtbar. also kann eine Uhrzeit wie bei mir oben (9 Uhr) doch nicht stimmen! Ebenso geht er nicht am Nachmittag unter, sondern erst in der Früh. Lieg ich da falsch, oder hab ich den Skin nicht kapiert, oder ist das ein Bug bei Neumond.

/German off  :oops:

/German on

Also, bei Neumond ist das wirklich normal, da der Mond ja im Kernschatten
der Erde liegt und daher auch nicht sichtbar ist. Wenn du dein Systemdatum
z.B. mal auf den 31.Januar setz, wirst du sehen, dass sich das auch ändert.
Lad dir mal das Tool ephemeris für pocket-pc runter, da siehst du, das die
Zeiten wirklich stimmen.
