The following changes are included in this build:

ADDED: Arrow image to the right of the current condition toolbar text to indicate if the temperature/barometer/humidity is increasing or decreasing.

ADDED: "Change Map..." menu item to toolbar right-click menu to allow a custom map to be displayed for a specific weather station. The default WeatherBug map will be displayed for all weather stations that do not have a custom map URL setup.

CHANGED: The barometer reading now displays with two decimal places.

FIXED: If the weather station name was edited in the "Station" section of the Options window, the actual name was still displaying at the top of the current conditions tooltip.

FIXED: The "Humidity Low" and "Humidity High" labels were switched in the current conditions tooltip.

FIXED: Map image was not always loading correctly when pointing the mouse over the globe toolbar icon.

FIXED: Tooltip was displaying "undefined" when the high or low temperature was not available.

Please share any comments, suggestions or issues in this thread. Also, feel free to post a screenshot if it will help describe what you're discussing.

Mike...Arrow not displaying next to barometric pressure.

Edit: Possibly due to the fact there is no significant change. :oops:

The arrow only displays if the barometer is increasing or decreasing. Otherwise, no arrow image is shown.

Can you add "Max. Daily Wind Gust" to the extension and WWL?

I added a map (http://www.wvec.com/weather/imagery/dop ... region.jpg) to the extension, and the map does not update like it does on the web. I also tried a Weather Underground radar image, and it does the same thing.

The radar maps on Weather Underground and WVEC update every 6-8 minutes. I tried using those maps, but it never updated, It's 6:33PM and the image at the extension is from 5:38PM.

dlbryant, is your extension setup to update at a set interval or do you manually update it?

Thank you, thank you, thank you for the custom map! This addition, IMO, makes the extension perfect :bounce:

My custom map is also not updating. I have my weather set to update every 15 mins, but even with a manual update, my map doesn't update. I'm using a radar map from Weather Underground. I haven't tried any others.

Thanks again for including this feature.
