Alignment problem #139

Closed classic-audio closed 3 years ago

classic-audio commented 3 years ago

Really a great project / code. Works for me - although I have 2 minor points. Display: 1.54 inch

  1. alignment og the forecast hours on the display (3 hour forecast) - start at the mid of the screen
  2. No data of the actual wind - showing 0 (zero) - I am getting data from open weather server in another application with correct data

Where can I make these changes to have the correct data and display of data?

You should remove these two lines: if (WxConditions[0].Forecast1 != "") Wx_Description += ", " + WxConditions[0].Forecast1; if (WxConditions[0].Forecast2 != "") Wx_Description += ", " + WxConditions[0].Forecast2; And try replacing this line: drawString(x + SCREEN_WIDTH / 2, y + 3, String(ConvertUnixTime(WxForecast[index].Dt + WxConditions[0].Timezone).substring(0,5)), CENTER);

with: drawString(x + offset, y + 3, String(ConvertUnixTime(WxForecast[index].Dt + WxConditions[0].Timezone).substring(0,5)), CENTER);

I have a solution now - thank you very much for the fast reply. The line: drawString(x + offset, y + 3, String(ConvertUnixTime(WxForecast[index].Dt + WxConditions[0].Timezone).substring(0,5)), CENTER); I made a small correction drawString(x + offset / 2, y + 3, String(ConvertUnixTime(WxForecast[index].Dt + WxConditions[0].Timezone).substring(0,5)), CENTER);

Another small issue - at the right of the display - the boxes are missing lines at the right. Perhaps you have a hint for that too ?

For your info... I also changed the text line of forecast to 2 lines - more easy to read :)

Good to hear,

try:

display.drawRect(x, y, offset + 1, 65, GxEPD_BLACK);

to:

Sorry,

Keyboard error:

Try: display.drawRect(x, y, offset + 1, 65, GxEPD_BLACK); to: display.drawRect(x, y, offset , 65, GxEPD_BLACK);

Out of interest which time zone are you in?

Regards

David

Thank you very much - fast reply and it works.

I am in Europe - Copenhagen time zone. I live on a small Island "Venø" - central Jytland.
