Very nice, but interface could be better
First, note that you can only display 3 cities unless you buy the Premium version, which I did.
Almost all of my comments from v1.0 still apply to v1.2, which I think is unfortunate. From what I can tell, v1.1 is only a very minor change from v1.0.
The interface continues to be straight from iOS and should be more Mac-like. Specifically, the cities are always lined up in a horizontal single row (like youd do for iOS), and the maximum number of cities displayed depends on the [smaller of] user-set window size or monitor size. The most I can display is 4 stations on any of my displays, (15" MacBook Pro and 1900x1200 desktop). All the author lets you do is change window size and spacing between station panes. Instead, I continue to encourage the autho tor:
- Allows users to resize the city windows. Two approaches could work: autosize depending on the total window size, or let users set the size similarly to the way Icon View works in the Finder.
- Allow users to specify the number of rows, ot at least give us an option to attempt to fit more cities into a window instead of forcing the user to perpetually scroll horizontally to see hidden cities.
- Allow users to reorder city panes within the GUI. Currently this can only be done by dragging in the Cities pop-out drawer.
The app is still a decent way to connect to Weather Underground, but Im pretty frustrated with its very limited display options. Im almost to the point of chucking this app and returning to using multiple weather widget windows.
