accented characters in the address

Hello
thank you for this nice widget. (Un)fortunately, I am french and accented characters in the url address do not seem to be properly read (the forecast website appears to be offline), such as in:
http://www.yr.no/sted/Frankrike/Midi-Pyr%C3%A9n%C3%A9es/Toulouse/
(originally : http://www.yr.no/sted/Frankrike/Midi-Pyrénées/Toulouse/)
Thank you for your help

Hi! Please use the english version of yr.no to search for places. Try this URL: http://www.yr.no/place/France/Midi-Pyr%C3%A9n%C3%A9es/Toulouse/

But oddly enough your URL is working for me, too. I've already tested this applet with places with accented letters so this should be no problem...

I confirm that it is not working for me, even with the english version of yr.no (http://www.yr.no/place/France/Midi-Pyr%C3%A9n%C3%A9es/Toulouse/). I downloaded the widget with the plasma add-on installer. Is it the last version?

Yes, it is. I've just removed my custom widgets and installed this one by plasma addon installer. Your URL works fine.

What version of plasma are you using? I have Plasma 5.3.2, KDE Frameworks 5.12.

Can you please post a screen of your weather widget settings dialog and also what exactly does not work? Do you see temperatures in expanded plasmoid? Do you see "Offline mode" instead of meteogram picture?

I am using Opensuse Tumbleweed, with the newly updated plasma 5.3.2-1.1 and KDE frameworks 5.11 (and apparently no possibility to upgrade to a 5.12 version)

I don't know how to add a snapshot of my screen with this web interface. But the message is, after a few seconds with "loading image", OFFLINE MODE. I get the temperatures of the only defined city (i.e. New York), both in the panel and in the widget window. A click on the Reload button does not update the images nor the temperatures. At the "Reload" place, appears the following message "23949818m ago"

Last, I tried a city nearby Toulouse (why not?) > http://www.yr.no/sted/Frankrike/Languedoc-Roussillon/Carcassonne/
It works fine

Hope it helps

I'm really sorry but I'm out of ideas right now. Cannot replicate this bug on my side therefore cannot repair this issue right now.

Hi,
nice widget.
One issue that confuses me is the moon (night) icon which appears early afternoon. Is this time parsing problem?

Hi! No. the problem is that I was too lazy to do it right :-) I plan to fix it by reading and using sunrise/sunset time from the server. Thanks for reporting!

Good job, but it's possible to choice an other weather station, for example for all Europe.
Thanks

I don't think it is (or will be) possible. I plan (already started) to add support for Open Weather Map but I doubt one can receive aggregated weather info for all Europe. It is usually related to GPS coordinates right? Otherwise e.g. one temperature for all Europe would be useless. But I don't know much about meteorology so I may be wrong or I don't know exactly what you mean.

System tray applet

Hi, thanks for the awesome plasmoid! Is there any reason for the popup that shows when clicking the system tray applet to be so different from the one that shows after clicking a plasmoid on the panel? It bugs me that I can't see today's forecast in the system tray applet's popup... Also the tooltip isn't very informative. Of course, this isn't too much of a problem as I can just put the plasmoid on the panel.

Hi! Thanks for feedback. Actually there are 2 reasons.

The main reason is that systray expanded area has fixed width and height (content is typically only vertically scrollable) so I can't place the wide meteogram picture from yr.no.

The tooltip cannot be rich-text (I couldn't come up with working code) like in normal widgets in panel. But it certainly can contain more info.

That leads to the second reason: I was too lazy to make this systray mode more usable. So I plan to add today's textual forecast in the expanded area and enhance the tooltip a little.
