VClouds Weather 2
A weather skin with attention to details...
• Up to 9 day forecast provided by The Weather Channel.
• Available in 20 languages: English, French, Italian, Russian, Polish, Hungarian, Czech, Dutch, Portuguese, Spanish, Catalan, Slovak, Serbian, Romanian, Bulgarian, Korean, Ukrainian, Finnish, German and Hebrew.
• Moon phase - a small moon phase image with additional info that can be toggled in the settings and a big moon phase integrated in the night time weather image.
• Includes 9 vertical and 3 horizontal variations.
• Very easy to customize (colors, fonts, etc).
• Semi transparent background (You can change its color and opacity or disable it completely).
• Support for Aero Glass (Blur) - only on Windows 7 / Vista.
* all the graphics, buttons and the moon and weather icons were created by me. if you want to use the icons look Here and read the description.
Instructions:
• To change the settings open the panel with the upper right button and click the gear shaped button on the left - the settings variable file will open (with notepad), you can change many things in there (be aware that the horizontal variations has their own settings and you will need to change it separately). after you make your changes, save the file and refresh the skin.
You can search google for your city coordinates or use these sites: www.latlong.net/ or www.mapcoordinates.net/
Click the button on the upper right corner of the skin to open the panel and click the Settings button, in the UserVariables.inc file that opens go to 'Latitude and Longitude' and paste the numbers replacing the old ones - save and refresh the skin.
Language, units and time formats:
Those who want to translate this skin to their language, simply open the panel with the upper right button, click the question mark (?) and read the instructions.
* If you have fully translated VClouds Weather 2 to your language please share it and I will add it in the next update.

Please update to the last version of the skin before posting about problems.
Great Work, Thanks a lot
This is my favorite skin. Installed but I cannot see symbol of precipitation, instead I have a box. I just checked that Century Gothic font is installed on my windows 7. Any help?
Might be something to do with Windows 7 text encoding. I have no idea to be honest.
That symbol is a Unicode symbol called Black Droplet. it is not a part of the Century Gothic font.
Hello, exactly the same thing happens to me in windows 10. Any possible solution? Thank you very much in advance
It seems that windows 7 does not have support for this type of character. Found that Black Droplet is inserted at iohelixMoon.inc lines 248 and 249 and VClouds Weather 2 - xDays.ini. I simply removed this character from code. Thank you very much for your help.
Very nice skin. I am trying to align it to the right edge of my second monitor, but I can't drag it to align with the right edge of the other skins. Is there a way to have the skin align to the edge of the screen like the other skins?
Thanks
Right click the skin > Settings > uncheck 'Keep on screen'.
Thank you.
A lot of Thanks. My favorite extension
Вы молодец. Уважение и почет вам.
I hope we can continue to use it.
Updated Korean language: https://1drv.ms/u/s!AmGOYt0fUXodhtZxCXmksKuJ1EDsOA?e=hHvvAa
I will add it in the next update, thanks.
When VClouds is started the Rainmeter log reportes the following error about every second:
Invalid TimeStampFormat: %Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%S (VCloudsWeather2\VClouds Weather 2 - 8DaysH.ini - [@PollenCurrentValidWeekDay])
After refreshing the skin the above errors stop and this one is reported - but only once:
!SetOption: Incorrect number of arguments (VCloudsWeather2\VClouds Weather 2 - 8DaysH.ini)
What does invalid timestampformat mean - can this be fixes somehow?
I cant reproduce the Invalid TimeStampFormat errors, I have seen them before but they come and go...
The !SetOption error is a mistype on my part and will be corrected in the next update.
The errors in this case does not mean that there's a problem with the skin's functionality so there's nothing to worry about. but thanks for letting me know.
Great work, actually managed to get the location working..real easy, thankyou
Hi! Thanks for this skin. I'ts working perfectly. Is it possible to use smaller images? If so how can I do it? I've tried to reducing the images size but they look the same on the skin after updating it.
You can resize the icons in the UserVariables.inc file.
read the instruction above for how to open it.
Thanks. I see it. I'm going to mess a little bit with the codes to make it fit with my theme. I will post a pic when done.
The moon phase details and small moon icon has an option in the UserVariables to turn them off.
The lines are:
;Moon Phase On (0) or Off (1):
MoonPhase=1
;Small Moon Phase On (0) or Off (1):
SmallMoonPhaseIcon=1
The Today/Tonight also has this option but I forgot to add the line: Hidden=#Today# to all the sections in the ini files so some of them are still showing.
;Today On (0) or Off (1):
Today=1
