This is probably something I should have seen ages ago. Anyway…
When I mouseover my wind direction gauge the popup shows the data plus the text Metar followed by a string of numbers and letters which change on each update. How is this being generated as it is not there in the customclientraw file? You can see what happens here.
Sorry Stuart, i aint got a clue, its not all straight forward, i.e. no settings file that i can see, someone
with more power than i have should be along soon
I don’t (currently) provide a switch for the METAR string. It shows if you enable display of the wind variation.
If you want to remove it, then the ‘standard’ gauges.js script I supply would have to be modified, just remove “ssGauge.VRB” from the code creating the pop-up…
The thing which made me question it is that it seems to be a string of meaningless characters. Can you explain what this string represents and why you decided to use it please?
That’s interesting Bashy but the text string appended to the word METAR on my popups looked nothing like that, and if it is an example of what a METAR string should be from my site then way have it on the Wind Direction popup only.
It just shows the sub-set of a full METAR string relating to the wind strength/direction only. From memory the format is dddssGgg fffVttt
where…
ddd = current wind direction in degrees
ss = current wind speed
G - gust information follows
gg = latest gust speed
second string is variation in direction in last 10 minutes…
fff = from direction in degrees
V - varying to…
ttt = to direction in degrees
