Improper units in with auto option #1

Closed LCMilstein closed 10 years ago

Thank you for Ubersicht and the Weather widget. I am in the US and am not much of a programmer, but I love playing with Ubersicht. I have the weather widget installed, and have set it up properly with my own darksky API key and my lat/long, however the widget is returning degrees Celsius, not Farenheit, as would be appropriate for my location. Per the API documentation, the "auto" option should pull the proper appropriate units, but is not. If I replace units-auto with units=us, units=si, or units=uk, nothing changes in the widget, but an error is reported by Ubersicht via notifications. I'd love this to be fixed, but am not sure what else to try. Thank you.

I was having issues with other widgets using TextEdit, so I switched editors and those are fixed. I want to try with Weather as well before confirming this is an issue. I don't seem to be able to download Weather right now, so closing the comment until I can get a new copy and try again.

Nice to hear you are enjoying Übersicht - did you manage to get things working after all? What you mention about changing units=auto to units=us should do the trick! You mentioned having trouble downloading the weather widget again. Did you try it via the website or directly from github?

Thank you so much for the note. That's exactly what I did. I downloaded it directly from github and then used a better editor to make my changes and it worked perfectly. I now have 5 widgets perfectly positioned on the desktop and displaying proper info (including Weather)! Thank yo.
