Cumulus.ini (preserving history): Difference between revisions

It is located in the directory in which you installed Cumulus and is updated whenever you change any configuration parameters from the application configuration pages. Cumulus also re-writes the file when it shuts down, so if you want to edit the file yourself, make sure Cumulus is stopped. Note that some configuration settings can only be applied by editing this file; they do not appear anywhere in the configuration screens. Cumulus does not write these values back out to the file, so they do not appear with default values - in other words, you need to ''add'' them if you want to set them. Note also that if your system is configured to use a comma for a decimal separator, then you should use a comma in any decimal values that you set in this file.

*1 = Enabled, calculated Humidex value to be displayed on the main screen instead of Heat Index. Note that Cumulus displays degrees C or F for Humidex, whereas strictly speaking it is unitless. This is for the convenience of those who use Fahrenheit but would still prefer to see Humidex displayed, where it might be confusing to show the unconverted value.
