Hi;

Could be possible to use a variable size of the xfce4-weather-plugin?

If the font size of the text shown could be changed (and the size use for the plugin changed in relation with it) it would be easy to achieve.

In my xfce configuration I would change it to a small font (as the shown in the orage watch).

regards,

As of 0.8.0, the font size is changed in relation to the panel size. However, most important information is now available in the tooltip too. In later releases, the scrollbox will be made optional, effectively being replaced by the tooltip. Would that be sufficient for you?

The scrollbox can already be "hidden" when you remove all labels from it. Most important information is still available via the tooltip. In one of the next releases, this handling will be improved. If you need to save space, hiding the scrollbox and using the tooltip is a much better option than using smaller font sizes which do not have such a great impact but make the label harder to read.

I'm therefore closing this bug.
