Would the text coloured per the rules work the same as a coloured circle? Yes - although a circle would be better for screen real estate I would imagine…

Ok, I’ve coded the “Alterative” color scheme just now, as you’ve described it, using generic colors. You will get the corresponding colored circle depending on the Flight Rule. What I would like from you are HEX color codes for those five colors that work best against the black background. For instance, you may want a lighter blue as the generic blue is a little hard to see. Agreed?

I would like #FCDFFF, #FAAFBA, #E45E9D, #FFFF00 and #87F717

Is it in a CSS file? That way I’m guessing people could self-configure?

Here’s what the original module is using and it looks like the below.

.vfr {
  color: green;
}

.mvfr {
  color: blue;
}

.ifr {
  color: red;
}

.lifr {
  color: #f0f;
}

Blue looks ok through my glass, so I don’t see any issue with that.

Mixing color names and hex colors…bad format. I’d stick with hex and people can still change them

You would like that the same? Delete or move Altimeter?

Hot pink? :-)

the format on that image is:

Wind direction @ wind speed: 220@05kt
Visibility: 10SM 10 statute miles
Sky Coverage: OVC - overcast, BKN - broken etc…
Cloud base: 150(00)ft
Temp: 10 degrees C
Dewpoint: -1 degrees C
Time of the report in 24 hour clock: 20:51

I’d say (personal opinion) that the pressure/altimeter setting isn’t that important. I’d prefer to keep the additional information, if you look at FDY and TBR above, they have:

-RA which is showers of rain
BR - which is fog (or haze, I can’t remember… 70% sure it’s fog, either way you can’t see through it well)

That to me is more important that the altimeter setting.

I can look for other examples if that would help?
