Hi,

i'm using Cairo-Dock 2.2.1 beta with Ubuntu 10.10 and i'm wondering how to change the weather-applet icon in the dock.

http://ubuntuone.com/p/a2R/

I'm using black & white icons, but the weather icon in the dock stays the same independend from the chosen theme of the desklet.
Is it possible to get another icon here?

Thanks for cairo-dock!
Michael

well it should be the same icons for current conditions and forecast.
are you sure this icon is not part of the theme ?
(themes are stored in ~/.config/cairo-dock/extras/weather)
you can try to delete the folder and re-apply the applet's config

I don't know where this icon comes from, but it never changes. It is not an icon from the weather themes. It also doesn't depend on the weather conditions.
I deleted the folder and re-applied the config. The icon stays the same.

It also doesn't depend on the weather conditions:

Any ideas?

Did you have a look into the config panel of the applet / icon tab?

Yes, and i can't assign any specific icon for the dock. That even wouldn't make sense, because it should depend on the weather conditions.

I don't know what i'm doing wrong...

It has something to do with my cairo-theme, not with the weather applet. When i use some standard cairo-theme, the weather-applet works fine. The icon in the dock is changing.

I must have changed anything in the cairo-them, but i don't know what.

Can you check if there is a "icon" variable into this file:
~/.config/cairo-dock/current_theme/plug-ins/weather/weather.conf

Can you post the content here? Maybe can you quit the dock, remove this file, re-launch the dock and change the theme?

Ups, no i can't, sorry!
I have just overwritten my old theme...

I've loaded a completely new theme and changed it to my needs and the weather applet is working fine now. If i can reproduce the bug i will post the config-file.

Thanks for your help!

there is an option named "display current condition on the icon"
enable it and it should do what you want
