Correct, the widget does not provide a lot of info atm. I have this on my todo list to see if I can extend it with some more info.
In your case, a suggestion is to enable the tags on the widget so you can see the temperatures for each day.
You can enable tags globally or set them on a per-widget base.

Skin settings --> homescreen layout --> Always show widget

I just noticed a possible small bug when using vertical home screen layouts with sub menus.
When using Simple Confluence Style Homescreen Vertical the sub menu panel size is not adjusted to the number of sub menu items. It looks like 6 sub menu items could be accommodated. This results in a large area of colour on the screen if there are only 2 or 3 sub menu items.
When using Modern Big Vertical layout this doesn't happen - the size of the panel is adjusted to the number of sub menu items.
Thanks for all your work with this skin.

Hi, I believe you push the down arrow when you're on Settings to reveal the file manager option (by on Settings I mean hovering over the option, not actually in the settings menu)

2 - when browsing TV episodes in the Big List view, every time I move to another episode, the fanart resets to the TV shows default fanart and I have to wait again if I want to see the extra fanart.
Is there a way to browse episode lists without interrupting the extra fanart slideshow? (have I explained that well enough?)
3 - Also in the Netflix view, the studio logo has a noticeable delay before it changes as I browse movies or TV. Nothing major, but is there a way to assign a studio logo to a library item like we do clearart, logos, poster etc in order to speed up the display? Currently
As I said, none of these stop me using my favourite skin, and I guess you have more important issues, but grateful if you have any thoughts.
1) This will be fixed in next update. Instead of Always displaying those ratings it will now follow the settings for the other views.
2) Will also be fixed in next update
3) The delay is just a few ms so that should not be noticable with the human eyes if the info is in the cache.
Do you see that delay on all items or just some ? Please also test with the next update as I fixed something to speed up the processing.
As for your question, no that image can not be set into the database. This might change in the future as I plan to contibute some code to the Kodi source to move some of the skinhelper stuff to Kodi itself.
Note, be aware that these changes will be in the beta version first and pushed to stable after a small period of time.

Any ideas on how to sort this
The latest update has some major changes to the widget code. In some circumstances this means that you will have to re-do your widget setup, sorry.
I do not have enough free time to write some hassle free auto migration.
Best is to reset your shortcuts to defaults to make sure there is no leftover garbage.

+1 to make all of the above optional, but in all views, please.
It is already optional. In the Skin settings - Media library views you can enable those ratings.

Maybe gifs themselves are the underlying problem? I disabled Prefer Animated Poster if available. That setting only disables gifs pulled in from the database, where ever that is. CUSTOM gifs I have manually added (because they are not in the database, although I submitted them to someone who said they maintained it and would add them) reside in the title folders with all the artwork. THESE are spinning up drive(s) to access.
Hmmmm, I am getting somewhere now. I added CUSTOM gifs to Kodi\userdata\addon_data\script.module.metadatautils and to Kodi\userdata\addon_data\script.module.skin.helper.artutils. This is no longer accessing HDD's. Fixed now, sort of. That one is my own fault and anyone else doing the same.
*EDIT*
A day has went by and now HDD's are being called for gifs again. I'm lost at this point. I do know it is accessing drives for animated poster .gifs and nothing else because logo is disabled in skin. With logo enabled, it too accesses drives.
There is your issue... You placed animated art within your media folders which is NOT supported. The texture cache is skipped for animated gifs so you really need to make sure that you place the animated gifs on a local drive drive that is always on.
That's the reason that by default the animated gifs are placed in the addon_data folder on the local drive.

If I disable Show Clear Logo if available top center, logo.png is no longer accessed and all is well. I have custom logo but nothing custom being accessed. These are in database scraper.
I would like to use logo and clearlogo if possible but will turn off for now. Maybe you can help with this and check skin code? I don't think it's me? Thank you for the hints. Happy!
I discovered a small bug in the skin. For the clearlogo, it wasn't requesting the clearlogo with the backgroud property (load in background). Somehow I suspect that this also forced it to grab the local copy and not the one in texture cache.
I'll post new update (beta) later today or tomorrow, please give that a test drive.
