• Added the possibility to open the map of any of the set locations, either by a right click to the tab of the Weather.ini skin, or to the right arrows, next to each location, on the Weather tab of the Settings\Settings.ini skin (see bellow).
• Updated the German translation, by ikarus1969. Thank him for helping with this.
• A few other minor updates in the code.

To manage the locations please take into account the followings: When you first install this version of the skin there are no locations set (not even if you upgrade the previous version of MirageWeather, because the appropriate variables, which are storing the location information have been renamed). To set up a location first click the locations on the right (by first you get there five dashes, each indication one of the yet not set locations). Any of the bellow procedure are you using to set up a location, it will be applied to the this way clicked / selected location.
When a place has been selected, you can:

• Click the Detect button, to let the skin to try detecting your current location (not always work).
• Try to enter the name of your location into the City field. When you hit Enter, the skin will look for the entered location, showing up to ten of the found locations, into a panel. Click the location you want to use, then click OK (if locations couldn't be found, you are notified about this).
• If none of the above solution work (rare cases, but not impossible), you can manually enter a location (in the City field), and set the geographical latitude and longitude, into the Latitude and Longitude fields and set the proper hemisphere (North - South and East - West, respectively), in the right placed drop-down menus. To set the numeric values of the coordinates, you can:
  • Click the field and enter the coordinate from keyboard, as a decimal number.
  • Scroll the mouse wheel on any of these fields. The fifth decimal of the coordinate varies.
  • If when scrolling, you keep hold down the CTRL key on your keyboard, the coordinate varies by tenth of a unit.
  • If you hold down the ALT key, the variation is by the third decimal (so by one thousandth of a unit).

Note that in the Settings skin, you can click the locations (and can set them up or remove them) just in order: you can remove only the last location and can add one only after the last one which is set up. However you can edit any of the set location at any moment, by clicking it, then editing the shown settings.
The other settings have not been altered, you can work with them in the way described in the first post of this topic.
