Does anyone know of a simple way to change the Mythweather screen sequence? I'd like to change it to 1) current conditions, 2) today's forecast, 3) extended forecast, 4) weather map (i.e. swapping the order of the middle two screens).

TIA,
Russ

No easy way. You have to change the MythWeather code and recompile to make those kinds of changes.

Oh, and I agree that the order is screwy, I even filed a bug report over on the MythTv bugzilla to that effect...

...which was disposed as "RESOLVED WONTFIX" :? I'll have a look at the Mythweather code & see if I can't make a patch.

If you're feeling really ambitious you could always make the order configurable... ;-)

I can do that - once I figure out how to change the order correctly. :)

Okay, one can easily change the Mythweather screen order by editing /usr/share/mythtv/themes/default/weather-ui.xml.

The <context> tag determines the screen order. So to swap the order of the second (extended forecast) and third (today's forecast) screens, simply change every instance of <context>2</context> to <context>3</context> and vice versa.

Or better yet, use this patch file that will do the work for you:

Code:

Ok, I give... how does one use that patch?

I used "pico" on /usr/share/mythtv/themes/default/weather-ui.xml and didn't see anything that looked like that sequence. A lot of content with "context" clauses, but not sure if I can just go manually change all the 2's to 3's, or whatever.

is there a script to do this?

Copy the patch shown above into a file named, for example, weather.patch, then cd to /usr/share/mythtv/themes/default, then:

# patch weather-ui.xl weather.patch

For more info on patching:

# man patch

BTW - It's better to use "diff -c" when publishing something intended to be used with "patch" since it makes the results more reliable.

So, then how does one apply a patch this way?

His insruction to copy into a file and then run patch seemed straightforward enough. Is "diff -c" a patch option? or a separate utility?

Thx!

Yes, I was. He used diff with no options to generate the patch. That works OK if you have EXACTLY the same file as he started with. If he'd used "diff -c" then the patch utility has more clues which can allow it to work even if there have been non-conflicting changes to the file and will let it better detect when there have been conflicting changes.
