sWeather

sWeather has been updated to v1.7.7 with the following bug fixes:

 Fixed speed issue when getting weather data. It was my fault and not the new API.
Fixed 5 & 10 day forecast data not showing for some users.
"Minimize to tray" option is back. I must have erroneously deleted it in the last build.
Pressure reading wasn't correct for imperial values.

sTray has been updated to v1.0.2 with the following bug fix:

 Handled situations where no printers exist or the print spooler service is inactive.

Added ability to configure which items are in the menu and their order.

Finally, sWeather.  On January 3rd, 2019, Yahoo! retired the API which sWeather used, so sWeather has been broken for a few weeks.  I apologise to all the sWeather users out there — I had not received any advance warning of this.

Fixing this took some time.   Some of the delay was applying and waiting for access to the new Yahoo! Weather API.  Further delays were because the new API required OAuth authentication, (a damn nightmare to figure out).  The final delays were due to some testing to make sure sWeather worked as before, and also the addition of some new features, changes, and bug fixes:

 Added support for the new Yahoo! Weather API. The old API was retired on 2019-01-03. The new API  seems slower than the previous one but I don't know if it's because of the new OAuth requirement for this new API or
something else. Whatever...it works, so please be patient with it and apologies for any inconvenience.
Hovering over the "Full forecast", "Radar", and "Powered by Yahoo!" links shows their URL in the statusbar.
Right-clicking the "Full forecast", "Radar", and "Powered by Yahoo!" links gives the option of copying the URL to the clipboard.
Added "Minimize to tray" option.
Added menu option to display raw weather data.
Added tooltips to statusbar icons.
Option to break location menu into multiple columns.
Eliminated dependencies on resources.dll and temp directory.
Took out the WOEID search feature because the new API doesn't support that currently. Had to go back to the old method of manually getting the WOEID from the URL of a location on the main weather.yahoo.com website. Yuck, what a travesty. >=[
Right-click clipboard context menu was broken.
Fixed an extra line in one of the tray tooltips.

Though I don’t anticipate any issues, please make a backup of your sWeather folder before applying the update.

One addition and two bug fixes:

 Created a "DjPete" temperature theme for fahrenheit. (Thanks, 21944.450)
 Recompiled as 1.7.1 since the last version was mistakenly compiled as v1.7.8.
Calling the About box when it was already displayed would cause an error. (Thanks, Ken Z.)

Go to the sWeather page to download the new version.

In this version I switched up the tray icon defaults.  In all previous versions, the weather conditions icon was always present and you could enable a second icon which showed the temperature.  I’ve reversed that in this version.  Now, the temperature icon is always present and you can enable the secondary weather condition icon.  I probably should have done it this way from the start.

Go to the sWeather page to download the new version.
