Title: Version 11 howto's
Post by: homerjpbody on January 02, 2004, 06:06:16 PM
a few questions here
1.  how do you make it remeber your settings?  seems that every time I change screens and come back the battery bars and tabs are toggled back on, how do i toggle them off so they stay off?

2.  How do I change the weather icons?  same as before witht the older versions?

3.  how do I get moon phases rather then sunup sundown?  thanks gang

1. At the beginning of each skin there should be a section that looks like this:

initregion,0,0
initregion,1,999
initregion,4,999
initregion,10,999
initregion,8,0
initregion,11,999
initregion,19,999
initregion,16,999

Any region that has a 0 next will start up each time you startup the program(not power on your ppc but actually refresh TodayPlus). Any line that has a 999 in it will not show. So in the example above region 0 and 8 will start while the rest won't. This section changes based on the skin you use.

2. Change the weather icons just like you did before.

3. you will have to change the skin to do this. here is the lines that show the sun info:

image,140,64,sunrise.png,
suntime,1,sunrise,civil,162,64,HH:mm,,,l

image,140,76,sunset.png,
suntime,1,sunset,civil,162,75,HH:mm,,,l

suntime,1,elevation,,140,87,%05.2f,Ele: ,°,l

these can be found somwher in the skin. Here are the lines for the moon info:

moontime,1,rise,official,213,64,HH:mm,,,l
moontime,1,set,official,213,76,HH:mm,,,l
moontime,1,visible,,195,87,,, % Vis ,l
calcvar,var30,moonphase,1
imagemeter,190,64,%var30%,moon_phases.png,tr,0,7

Change these lines as you need to fit your skin. You will also need the moon pictures which can be found in the Moon phase thread located   here. (http://www.dark-mojo.com/todayplus/viewtopic.php?t=1102) Hope this helps.

Ok, now I am confused. Could you explain a little more about what you want.

I think you are a little confused, WisBar Advanced skins the Taskbar and menubar. TodayPlus skins the today Screen, the space between the taskbar and menubar.
