Weather applet doesn't work properly if started without network.

[Eugene]

If you load AWN with applets without network, and turn on network later, Weather Applet works strange.
It shows weather but click on it doestn't open forecast for next days.
It looks like applet opens an empty overlay for forecast.
After some hours I can start working well.

Please look at this case, because delayed network situation is very common for wifi laptops.

Thanks.

Hi Eugene. What version of AWN are you running? Are you using the default
version from a distribution like Ubuntu, using a PPA, or from source?

[Eugene (lisitsky)]

Hi Michael.
I use 0.2.6 installed from Ubuntu repo.

[Michael Rooney (mrooney)]

Ahh okay. I've fixed it in more recent versions to display a dialog when it
has no data informing the user that it is fetching it. It also has a refresh
option in the right click menu to force an update when you have Internet
again. I'll mark this Fix Committed for now.

[Eugene (lisitsky)]

I saw blue square before weather is loaded.
What do you think of forcing update on first left click if data was not loaded?
So it would be transparent for users.

Hi.
I've just tested plugin, and found "reload" option doesn't help it to start working properly.
If it can help, here's cut from .xsession-errors

[Michael Rooney (mrooney)]

Which version did you test the refresh option on, 0.2.6?

[Eugene (lisitsky)]

Yes. 0.2.6

[Michael Rooney (mrooney)]

The weather applet has been rewritten since 0.2.6 and hopefully that issue
isn't present. If you want to check it out and report back, check out

[Eugene (lisitsky)]

Thank you! I've installed trunk version.
It seems like problem is gone.

Now day names are liing on the blocks without any space - is it ok?
Please look at screenshot.

Yours, Eugene

[Michael Rooney (mrooney)]

That was the intended effect, I thought it looked quite nice personally. Do
you dislike it?

[Eugene (lisitsky)]

It looks nice. Let it be :)
The previous message I wrote like a tester looking for all changes in a program, don't worry about it much :)

Thank you for your time! :)
