The following instructions will let you add a Sky button to the Location Bar.

When you press the Sky button, the Advanced Sky Editor window opens and you can easily change the Sky Presets by using the drop-down menu in the upper-left corner of the window.

See the WindLight_settings page for many additional presets.

By hand

(This way may take more time, but is more 'open')

  • Make a backup copy, then edit this file: skins/default/xui/en/panel_navigation_bar.xml
  • Use the Search/Find feature of your text editor and search this string: *TODO
  • In the line above, change 266 to 230
  • A dozen of lines above, look for this string: <location_input
  • Above that line, add a new line with the following code
<button follows="left|top" height="23" layout="topleft" left_pad="7" name="Windlight" label="Sky" tool_tip="Open Sky Settings" top_delta="0"  width="30"> <button.init_callback function="Button.SetFloaterToggle" parameter="env_windlight" /> </button>
  • Save and quit
