Forecast Fox placement

Post by hellonorman » Thu Oct 19, 2006 2:50 am

I usually stick forecast fox in the toolbar-menubar. It's the bar with File, Edit, View...etc. I set it to always last and it fits nicely on the right side of that bar.

Hot damn you are right, I should have looked at the preferences more closely. That's the way to go!

I'm about to try forecastfox for the first time. Should I go with the regular forecastfox or forcastfox enhanced?

Man, good tip. It fits better up there, particularly with some of the text taken off. Hats off to the Forecastfox for giving everyone that sort of flexibility.

I haven't listened to last nights show - what's the issue with FF? Lower right corner is cool for me.

It can block you from being able to see a long url in the status bar. That's what motivated me to find a new place for it and Dann mentioned on the last show. I liked the menubar because it was mostly just empty anyway.

Ah, yeah, I can see that.
