Hi everybody!
K-SYS Sysmetrix shows weather temperature only in fahrenheit,but we use here celsius! So,does anybody know ,is it possible to change that weather temperature shows celsius ?? Most of sysmetrix shows weather temp in both,but this one only fahrenheit!

you can change the temp readings to celsius in sysmetrix. Its in on one of the options. Or if you want, you can make it alternate between celsius and fahrenheit.

I have this theme showing Celsius for both weather and cpu - so please check and confirm that you have in preferences > weather - checked the box that says 'use metric units'

Confirming!There is a tick "use metric units"!! Somehow it doesn`t work with this theme,I don`t know why? When I use other themes,it works!

I can't remember configuring anything else - but its been so long since I set up Sysmetrix. If you look in the documentation search index for celsius - it should offer formatting as an option which once chosen shows you how to force the reading you want. Beyond that all I can tell you is that I'm running XP SP1 with Sysmetrix 3.2.0 and that the K-SYS theme is showing Celsius on my desktop for both weather and cpu.

Skryme, go into the configuration for that theme, then look at the textual information section. About line 26, Weather - temperature....on the right there is an input box labelled "format" - change the F to C

Thanks very much Tiggs!!! Now it works fine,can I ask from you a little bit more? I like to use K-trash,but I can`t get it to work. Configure K-trash works,but if I try to use Open Recycle Bin,Empty Recycle Bin or Properties,all that doesn`t work! So,what might be wrong?

what version of desktopx are you using and what OS?

also, another thought...what language version is your OS? This is the most probable cause for it not working (ie: if you aren't using an English language version). If this is the case could you email me so I can ask you some questions?

Hey Tiggz

For what its worth I'm 99.9% sure I didn't have to alter this and if I'm looking at the right line (26) then its still set to format F - so must be affected by a priority I've set somewhere else on mine.

I use latest version of desktopX 2.19p(b).002 and WinXP Finnish version! Do you need anything else information?

Skryme - yes!

The script uses a vbscript command called "invokeverb" which fires the relevant command on the context menu of a ed item.

So...for example, the options you say don't work, are executed with the following lines of code:
objFolderItem.InvokeVerbEx("Empty Recycle &Bin")
objFolderItem.InvokeVerbEx("&Open")
objFolderItem.InvokeVerbEx("P&roperties")

if you look in the brackets, that text you see there mirrors the command on the recycle bin right click context menu of an english language version of XP. As such it won't work on another language version.

However, it is possible for me to attempt to add Finnish support for this object if you could tell me the text for those commands as they appear in your OS, as well as the Finnish equivalent for the "&Delete" command on the right click menu for general files and folders. Note the use of the character "&" - this denotes that the character immediately following it is underlined as it appears in the menu. Also, I imagine it's important to know which letters are capitals and which are not.

Once I have that info, and if I can find a way to determine the language of the OS via script, then I can try and add Finnish support to this object

Okay!
Now I have big problems,because 1.I have to use dictionary that I "maybe" understand what you said! 2.I don`t understand these things like vbscript and so on enough,because I have been computer a short time! 3. Also I need so exactly orders that I had a little bit chance to find information what you need!
So,It`s not necessary to do so much work as I think it needs only for me!!!!
I thank you very much Tiggs that you tried to help me,I appreciate it very much!!

Skryme, it might work if you alternate click on the trash bin and take a screenshot.  Then alternate click on an item you want to delete and take a screenshot of that menu.  He can use that to modify the script... there are other people who might use this information to modify the script in their own language.
