Why? What is too much? Couldn't you make it to work as you wanted?

I thought it was a simple fix but I guess not O.O

Sorry...
Hey, you probably missed my reply which was just a copy paste solution without reading if you are not into that :D
Here it is again:

Try changing your [Measure.Time.Blink] to this:

Code: Select all

[Measure.Time.Blink]
Measure=Calc
Formula=Counter % 20

IfEqualValue=0
IfEqualAction=[!SetOption Meter.Time.Shadow Text "[Measure.Time.Hour] [Measure.Time.Minute]"][!SetOption Meter.Time Text "[Measure.Time.Hour] [Measure.Time.Minute]"][!SetVariable Shadow "255,106,213"]

IfAboveValue=10
IfAboveAction=[!SetOption Meter.Time.Shadow Text "[Measure.Time.Hour]:[Measure.Time.Minute]"][!SetOption Meter.Time Text "[Measure.Time.Hour]:[Measure.Time.Minute]"][!SetVariable Shadow "199,116,232"]
And remove the DefaultUpdateDivider. This should fix your problem.

Hehe thanks balala :D

You're welcome kyriakos876, your solution is a really good one, but should take into account what I said above: I'd replace the IfEqualValue=0 and the appropriate IfEqualAction, with IfBelowValue=10 (and again, the appropriate IfBelowAction, posted above), or even better, I'd replace all these options with IfCondition (which is a newer option, with many advantages).
See all these in my previous reply.

I replaced it and the GIF was at the desired speed but the shadow didn't colors and the colon didn't blink

About the blinking colon, after you've copied kyriakos876's code, replace, as I've described in my last reply, the IfEqualValue=0 and the appropriate IfEqualAction, with IfBelowValue=10 (and again, the appropriate IfBelowAction, posted above).
I also said that a much better solution would be to replace all these options, with IfCondition.
If you don't know how to do this, first please post the last code you have, to can talk about the same one. Then I'll indicate how to modify it, to make the colon blinking.

Yea it's better indeed, with IfCondition, I always prefer IfCondition over everything :D
