Skins order?

Post by Thund3R »

Hello there!

I started useing Rainmeter today. Its really perfect program! I spent all my day tweaking its parametrs and apperance and finally, I got this combination of modules from Gnometer (Weather), YBoris Clock from deviantart and Enigma (everything else):



Everything works fine, but actually, I found a little problem. I wan't all the skins to be on the desktop level. But, when I pop up the window from the weather widget, its BEHIND the clocks.



I would like it to be infront of the clock, but still on the desktop level. I looked through all the settings, even through few of the .ini files, and didn't find a thing about some kind of sorting. Does this have a solution or would I have to place the weather somewhere else?

Thanks for all answers! :)

Unless the desktop level is particularly important, set it to bottom.
Also, that looks really good. Would you mind uploading the theme?

Open the rainbrowser (manage skins in the configs menu)
select your skin, skin settings - the option you want to change is Load Order. skins with higher numbers are displayed on top of the skins with lower ones.

I tried that already :) It would work fine, unfortunately, I use alot the "Show Desktop" button to minimze everything with one click. And, when I set "bottom" option and use this button, the skin disappears and appears again only when you use that button again.

And, I will gladly upload the theme if you want! :)

This is how it looks on my desktop. :)
Would it be enough to Save & Upload the created theme or is it necessary to also add the Clocks Skin which is not part of Rainmeter?

VCLouds: Oh, thanks! :) Gonna try it.
Mmmh, the Gnometer Weather skin have the Skin Settings option greyed - its unaviable. :( So, I can't raise its number... :\

EDIT: I found it! In Skins and Variants, I had selected the bad variant - and that's the reason why it was grey. Everything is ok now. Many many thanks for help! :)

There is another way. open Rainmeter.ini and search for "LoadOrder" in section of the skin you want to change.

edit: I see you worked it out, glad i could help.
