Personally, I'd want to have both "day" and "night" information available for today and tomorrow, and that is probably going to be difficult in the limited space available for the "container" I described.
What I would likely end up with is
- Put the entire contents of the skin in a container
- Create some new meters, next to each day, that are more or less "D" and "N', or use a little sun and moon icon if you want.
- When it is past 4pm or so of the current day, fade out the "D" and disable the mouse action on that. There won't be any "day" stuff for the current day then.
- Create the meters you want for the "day" stuff. You should only need one set of these, as you will set their contents dynamically before you "slide" them over. Put them in another container.
- When you mouse over either "D" or "N" for a particular day, in this skin that would be today or tomorrow, have the mouse over action do the following:
- Use !SetOption to set all the values for the "day" meters to whatever is appropriate. The correct "day" and the correct day or night values.
- Slide the "current" container out, and slide the "day" container in.
- When you mouse off the "day" container, just reverse the slide.
Yes, ToolTip is spectacularly bad for this, for any number of reasons. It can't be formatted, it will "blink" with this much information in it, and you don't have much control over where it will appear. I'd personally really hate any kind of "popup" for this.
The design of this skin is intended to make it fit into a particular "sidebar" spot on my screen, that works well both with the other skins I run, and with the other applications I might be using at the same time. Nothing that makes any part of it "wider" or "taller" is going to work for me.
