If the degree number is rounded and the units are removed, the widget could
take roughly half the space.
SUMMARY
This is a **feature request** about the Weather Report tray widget. Not sure if
I've categorized this issue correctly.
The widget currently shows degrees with 1-digit precision (e.g. `15.0`). It
also shows the unit (e.g. `°C` to `°F`).
Both of these take space for not much benefit. Surely, by default, the unit
should be there, so that new users could more easily figure out what it is and
configure it accordingly.
But on my own desktop, I know that I'm using `°C`, so I don't need to see it
there all the time. Similarly, `15.0` takes up 2 more characters than necessary
(compared to just `15`). I (and possibly most other people) don't need
sub-degree precision.
The Weather Report wiget could introduce some compact mode which:
- hides the unit (`°C` to `°F`)
- rounds the numbers (`15.0` -> `15`)
Doing this, the widget's horizontal space could be cut in half, saving useful
space in the tray.
Instead of a "compact mode", checkboxes may be introduced for each of the above
(unit hiding / number-rounding), so they can be controlled separately.
