Cloud Base Measurement - Cumulus Web Integration

Post by glen.day »

Steve,

I have noticed that the "Cloud Base" gauge that is displayed on the web page integration is displayed in feet, can this be changed to metres? If not, will a future release enable the user to change this measurement from feet to metres?

Glen,

It's just a bit of hokum, really, based on the difference between the temperature and the dew point; I'm almost embarrassed at having it in there. I think I'd be more inclined to take it out than provide a facility to display it in metres :)

I'll consider changing it...

I've put the changes in to show it in metres if altitude in metres has been selected - it seemed logical rather than introduce a new setting. Just about to test for a while before releasing...
