WebImages

by Merlin

This Widget allows its user to keep tabs on any image URL put into it. It's ideal for looking at images updated dynamically, such as webcams or traffic cameras. You can check out the Eiffel Tower or Times Square up to the minute if you want!

Custom URLs are stored for later use and the Widget can spawn copies of itself with a single click, for added spying fun.
Current Version: 3.6.1

    ellobobill: Please read the section "Special Startup Mode" that is in the Help.pdf file that is included inside the Widget (you can unzip a copy of the .widget file to find it). I've also uploaded a copy of the Help.pdf file here: http://g7awz.users.btopenworld.com/Beta/WebImagesHelp.pdf

    The chances are that you have an invalid URL. In "Special Startup Mode" you can delete suspect URLs. If that does not help, please make a full report in the appropriate Konfabulator forum, with your full system details, etc.

    Great Widget. Not sure if you take requests, but would like to see the following features:
    1) Make it easier to edit the locations...many times a website changes their source and the location needs to be modified. If no image is displayed, it's impossible to edit the location. Suggest a right-click opens menu to select edit or delete or add locations funstion, which opens another menu to easily select the location you wish to edit or delete.
    2) Eliminate all the other buttons except for t More

    scheung98: re 1) You may select a location and edit it, even if it fails to display. The title of the failed location is not displayed (the title continues to match the displayed image), but if you alt-click the + button, you can edit the selected failed location.
    re 2) There is a pause button (#4 on the left). The title is displayed if there is enough space for it. You may use the magnify button to make the frame bigger to see the title.
