Hello Yuri
Can you please add the ability to display /m³ to a slot in the weather monitor skin? We would like it to be able to display pollen counts correctly. This would be similar to adding a % for the Humidity.

Thank you.

Perhaps the unit setting should be modified so that it is more literal. If a value doesn't have any internal meaning to TLB, then it should be passed stratight through to the plugin.

I'll use this image to help illustrate what I mean (although they're not the best examples!)...

In example 1, I want to retrieve the Wind Speed, but change it's unit type from km/h to kilometers/h, I'd specify a unit type in the skin.ini, thus:

Code:
[CustomParam0]

name = Wind Speed

unit = kilometers/h

find0 = "<td>Current Conditions</td>"

find1 = "Wind"

find2 = "mph"

find3 = "<b>

delim = " km/h"

The output I'd see in my WM skin would be "12.9 kilometers/h".

In example 2, I want to retrieve the Wind Gusts, and add a unit type of mph (I'm retrieving parameter with valuetype=INT so the "-" gets converted to a zero!), I'd specify a unit type in the skin.ini, thus:

Code:
[CustomParam0]

name = Wind Gust

valuetype = INT

unit = mph

find0 = "<td>Current Conditions</td>"

find1 = "Wind Gust"

delim = "</"

The output I'd see in my WM skin would be "0 mph".

So, adding "m³" to a parameter would be as simple as:

Code:
[CustomParam0]

name = Foo

unit = m³

find0 = "<td>Foo</td>"

delim = "</"

And the value in the WM skin reads "FooValue m³"...

Another one for our man, Yuri! :D
