Re: Feature Requests

It’s 5 years since I touched this plugin but from memory the custom state settings (see screenshot earlier in this thread) allow any format you like for sunrise/sunset?

Happy to look if there’s anything’s specific missing.

I think the problem is that the custom settings use the strftime() format strings, which do upper/lower case by the locale standard. Which is upper for the US. Which the requester doesn't want. So he wants a way to override that in the plugin so he's not trying to munge the string later.

Re: Feature Requests

I’m lying in bed napping before a meeting tonight, so forgive my sleepy brain - but what part of sunset is alphabetical to need upper/lower?

Ah… is it 12 hour am/pm?

Thank you for the description of why I am asking for the new feature. I do not have the technical detail in my toolbox at the present time.

Re: Feature Requests

I've just pushed v3.0.17 to the plugin store.

This adds two more states SunriseL and SunsetL which are lower-case versions of these states, the same as the Custom3L etc shown above.

Re: Feature Requests

Would it be possible to get it to show an option for if it’s a weekday or not?
