[QUESTION] Tool tip for precipitation forecast from MOSMIX data source

[Dondo11]

Hi Daveiano

I'm using weewx-wdc to visualise forecast data obtained from DWD via @roe-dl's weewx-DWD.

When hovering over the precipitation graph, the tool tip always shows the same time of day for any point on the x-axis. According to @roe-dl, this may be due to the particular mix, in this graph, of hourly data for both, cloud cover and precipitation probabilty vs. daily totals for precipitation itself.

I realise that showing the time of day provided by cloud cover/probabilty may be similarly puzzling in conjunction with daliy precipitation totals yet more informative in general.

Can you think of a way to change the current behaviour?

Closing due to comment on issue @roe-dl's project. Thanks! Please file an issue if it's now trouble, since I'm not a developer myself.

Just been experimenting with skin.conf a bit, and moving the "rain" section in [[[[dwd_meteogram_2]]]] from being first is a workaround.

Good catch! I had the same workaround in mind, but I had no time yet to test it out.

Does this fully work and solve the problem? If so, I would add this workaround in the FAQ and Wiki of the project.

As far as I can tell it works perfectly well. The time/date values change according to the position on x-axis for precipitation probability and cloud cover while the value for total rainfall/day remains constant. So this workaround is viable as long as the order of values is irrelevant.
