No “Rain and Snow” mix icon

I like the widget a lot, it works so much better than Google’s native one. One problem though: I would like to have always the 3 day forecast displayed so I click on the weather icon and the forecast appears on the RIGHT of the current conditions. It seems that I cannot move it below. I’d like to view the gadget exactly as it is shown on this page, with the current conditions on top and the forecast right below. Is there any way to do this?

Hi, nice gadget. My request/suggestion: being a typically confused UK user it would be great to have Celsius and mph at the same time.

I’m not having any luck installing your gadget. It downloada and unzips, but I see no .exe file or anyother way to actually install it.

Hello, been using this gadget since several months, and have had no big troubles at all, but now after reinstalling windows and everything, is not possible to install this gadget again (which is the only google desktop gadget that shows the city where i live!). When installing prompts an error alert: “Invalid gadget package”. Is there any problem?, how can I install it and use it as I was using it before?. Thanks

Hi,

I’ve fixed the problem with “Light Rain” the issue is actually a problem with Google IMO.
When the condition says “Light Rain” the icon they specify is “mist” very odd!

Anyhow, please remove the gadget and re-download it, it should be OK now

Yes these comments do get looked at by the developer (me).

I develop all my gadgets in my *free time*, this is not my job, and very often I might not get a chance to work on them for weeks, sometimes even months.

I’ve released a new version of the gadget a few days ago (v1.1.1) this will fix the problems with missing icons.

As for the other features … I maybe will implement them at some point. But I’ve never been a fan of apps that don’t display the sun at night time
