Default **Weather Slot Help**

So I'm working on a hidden bottom dock theme with weather slot and I've got everything figured out pretty much, except for the icon I'm supposed to use for the weather slot. I mean do I let the user put their weather app there or is there someplace where I can get an icon or something to put there? Any help is greatly, greatly appreciated

I found it best to just let the user put their own weather app there. Just tell them which slot is intended to be displaying the weather on the home screen. For example, I made a theme with button 1 (user-defined app position 1) as the weather slot visible on the home screen. Buttons 2, 3, and 4 were Messages, Calendar, and SMS, all hidden offscreen.

Mmhmm, rrrebo is correct.

What I do is if I add 6 icons to the dock, and a weather slot, I make it slot 7 and just let them have the freedom to choose what weather app is best for them. Anything else just pm me!

If I am creating a theme in TC, say I add six icons, and I want a weather slot. I just add the six in composer, then open the SVG before importing into TB, and each icon you added in TC will have a 'Slot' assigned to it. First is always 'Slot0'. I then change them all to start at 'Slot1'. (have to change this is 2 spots in the SVG) Then I add one Icon in TB, put it where I want and set the options for it how I want. Done. TB will always take over with your SVG. So if you add an app in TB it will be 'Slot0'.
