Update Notes - 6.8.0
✨ New Features
- Added a
randomStart option for the program guide engine which lets the guide start scrolling from a random position, rather than always starting from the top.
channels:
- number: 160
name: Guide
guide:
randomStart: true # Optional. Start at a random point in the guide's scrolling cycle each time the engine loads.
- Added new capabilities to the bulletin editor's weather engine:
- Current / daily precipitation, based on provider availability
- Ability to save WeatherAPI.com API key in settings rather than config file
- Ability to turn on / off different weather metrics in weather blocks in the bulletin editor / character generator engine
🔧 Bug Fixes
- Fixed a bug in the character generator's crawl text where we'd incorrectly calculate font widths when web fonts hadn't finished loading yet.
⚙️ Other Changes
- Program guides now truncate long program titles like the guide engines we're simulating do and don't show timeslot info in space that is too small to display it properly.
