Help with displaying weather icon on main menu

**JimL** · 07-31-2010, 07:37 AM

Hey, just started skinning and I'm wondering how to load the weather info (preferably just day 1) when loading / starting up RR. I can get the wicon to show if I enter/exit weather.skin, so I know it works. Just not sure on how the skin loads the weather info.

Should have worked for you. Works great for me.

Here is where I put RELOADWEATHER

Code:

DigitalFX Skin Code & Commands

/ -------------------- Things to run, and get settings on Digital FX's Start ------------
"OnSkinStart","WinPresetLoad||SetApps||SetCommandLabels01||SetAppLabels||SetIcons||ExtraPrograms"
"ExtraPrograms","SETVAR;RRLoaded;Loaded||QWERTY||[HL]RELOADWEATHER[/HL]"
"CDLaunch","RUNQ;$SkinPath$Scripts\AutoLaunch.exe"

Just a note:

"RELOADWEATHER" command will load the the weather for your current location if you have a GPS signal.

If you want to load the weather for the city you have chosen for CITYWEATHER then you need to use "RELOADHOMEWEATHER".
