Customize your screens
You can change the colour of the text and background colour in parts of Weather Dispay to jazz up the display and/or have background images loaded. You can also enable or disable portions of the display to suit your tastes.
Colour
- Click on Setup, General and Colour/Misc/Tide/etc
- Select Setup Colours.
- Or you can right mouse click on the main graph, and select Setup Colours.
Buttons are grouped by the part of Weather Display they effect, and are labelled for the specific item they control.
Some screens let you set the background as an image file (BMP, JPG or GIF), e.g. the trends image, summary image, etc.
You can also set the colours of the graph lines as well.
Note Using more than 256 colours in your Windows settings gives the best results.
If you're looking to use a black background for the main screen, make sure you have disabled skins (Setup - Skins - No). It's a limitation with the result being any dialogs opened from the main window will have black label text on black backround (i.e. you won't see any text).
For the weather dials page, i.e View, Dials, a black background with light green numbers looks cool.
