I am running WeeWx Version 3.9.2 and Belchertown skin version 1.0.1.

The temperature graph axis incorrectly displays "90" as "-0" as if the 9 is replaced by a dash ("-").  Please refer to the attached screen shot which shows this error.

How do I fix this?

Thanks!

Gordon

Whats the link to your site? 

Also, skin 1.0.1 isn't the most recent release so fixes to this particular version aren't supported, but I'll take a look.

Looks fine to me. What browser are you using? I'm on Windows 10 and Chrome

Hi Pat,

I am running OpenSUSE Linux with KDE Plasma 5 desktop where the problem exists with chrome, chromium and firefox.  You are right in that the axis labels work fine in Windows.  Any idea what is wrong on desktop linux?

Thanks,

Gordon

Not sure about OpenSUSE, but on Pop_OS it's rendering fine for me. I wonder if it's something with your OS specifically? Sorry, I don't have any better answer on that one. If you go to another belchertown site (like mine, belchertownweather.com), are the y-axis labels truncated? I ask because you're using 1.0.1, and I wonder if this is fixed in the new 1.2 beta.

As an FYI, the temperatures on the y-axis on http://belchertownweather.com also have "-0" instead  of "90".  So, this problem remains on the 1.2 beta.

FYI,

I'm not sure I'd classify this as a 1.2 beta problem but rather something unique to your OS environment. Perhaps a missing font file so the OS is substituting with what it has available? Try it from Windows or your cell phone?

OK, I have another system running Debian/Gnome and everything renders correctly.

Also, I have a WIndows 10 instance that renders everything correctly as well.

So, what is the problem with OpenSUSE?  I've been using OpenSUSE since 2013 and I have not ever seen this before.

Any recommendations?

Thanks,

Gordon

Also, I have the Konqueror browser running on my OpenSUSE instance and everything is rendered correctly by Konqueror on OpenSUSE.  Weird....  Comments?

No, I have no idea. 

Could be a fonts issue? 

Could be something else? 

Does OpenSUSE have a Gnome option? If so try that?

Maybe someone here may know.
