Hi Thomas,
A couple of bugs to report:
1) Quick help doesn't operate as a screenbar's quick-help should.
eg - (With RMB>Settings>MUI>Help>Quick help disappears... set to "when mouse leaves object".)
When moving between screenbar modules, yWeather's quick help can remain open when other screenbars' quick help become active. Normal behaviour is 'mouse leaves object' occurs (quick help disappears) when moving between screenbar modules. Styling appears slightly different too.
Thats because my quick help is a custom quickhelp using MOUSEHOVER feature of intuition, to be opened immediatly when the mouse is hovering my sbar.
Unfortunately I only get the HOVERSTOP command if you move the mouse out of the complete screenbar.
I could use MUIs quick help, but then it wouldn't open immediately like now...

2) Module appears to freeze the screenbar on all screens except Ambient when used on multiple screens. Remains frozen even after disabling the screenbar module (rmb on screen depth gadget>modules) for screens alreasy open. Ambient screenbar, however remains active.
Seemed to be the same for the previous (non screenbar module) version too.
Are you sure you used latest v1.5?
Because this v1.5 uses an slave task for downloading the weather data, previous versions did this withing the PublicScreenManager task which "freezes" other sbars (clock doesn't update).
I also use multiples screens here (ambient, owb, yam) but w/o such freezings.
Strange, it seems to be working now. I thought I'd fully removed the old yweather before testing, but its possible I hadn't. Will keep an eye out and let you know if it recurs.
Thanks, it's a very useful application, and a bit more compact than having Wetter on the desktop (although I currently use both!)
