brucewilsonpa, please post a screenshot of the tootlip.

No success trying to capture a screenshot that I an send.

A "screenshot" is a TWO step process. The 1st step captures the image. The 2nd step makes the image a file.

Step 1 - capture
When the image is on the screen press ther Print Screen button.

Step 2 - make a file
Start>Programs>Accessories press the Paint option. When Paint opens click on Edit>Paste.
Edit the picture so most extraneous stuff is removed. File>Save the picture to a GIF file.

To "post a screenshot" is a TWO step process.

Step 1 - upload the file to an image hosting website
Upload the saved image to http://imageshack.us/.

Step 2 - the end
Post the resulting URL here.

Mike, since posters have no concept of how to do a "screenshot" maybe adding instructions to the FAQ sections would be a good idea.

I just picked up Windows Vista this weekend and was able to recreate this issue. I noticed the tooltip window was as Postino posted when I switched to a city that had a severe alert.

The following build resolved this issue for me:
Download Weather Watcher 5.6.18f

If you're using Windows Vista, please give this new build a try and post your findings.

Hello:

I have now been using the new build for a few days now and the tool tip problem has not re-surfaced.

Thank you.

The tooltip seems to be working fine on the new Vista build.

Other unresolved Vista issues seem to exist:

1. Use Custom Tray Tooltip Window Location freezes up the program
2. WW won't close down automatically on system restart - it prompts for confirmation.

Can anyone else confirm this?

When enabling this option, WW doesn't freeze for me. I'm able to set the location for the tooltip window -- BUT WW doesn't use that custom location. It always reverts back to it's default location.

Confirmed:

For me the WW options window just flashes -- then Vista prompts if you want to force close WW.

This problem exists with Windows XP also.
