Improvements weather window #142

Open da-anda opened 7 years ago

In the weather window you can focus and select the top bar to cycle through the locations. IMO it would be better to also add a zoom effect to this panel when focused.

From a usability POV it IMO would be better though to switch locations by simply pressing left/right when the item is focused and indicate that with arrows. I didn't really notice the help text showing up when focusing that item, nor did I expect it to be focusable at all.

The next thing I'd change is the presenation of the weather provider and the name of the location. I'd move the provider name to the very top, so that it reads "Weather / provided by X" where the provided by part could have a smaller font face. Then I'd move the name of the location to the focusable top panel or above. When moved above, the arrows icons to switch locations should probably be next to the location name. Maybe ryanmah already has a nice layout for that, didn't check.
