Pingu, scrolling pinger much like cmd>ping

Post by Makifun »

Herro!

Since I couldn't find anything that looked like the pingtool in CMD as a rainmeter skin I decided I would try to make one myself.

After failing to make one myself I found RedK's CMDWrapper and bam! I hit the jackpot!

I made this skin from it so all the credits go to RedK obv as all I did was remove some code. :)

Whoa! That stuff actually works! O.O

Just kidding.
Btw base idea behind that plugin was to make Rainmeter skin exactly like this one.
I'm glad it was at use to someone. Have fun.

Wow, thank you RedK for the plugin!
Great skin Makifun, thank you!

Makifun just wanted to point out that I am not able to drag the skin around.
Any left click on any area set ping in motion but still can not drag/move skin manually.
Is there a quiet area on it that I am missing?

Thank you again

Change

Code: Select all

LeftMouseDownAction=!CommandMeasure "cmdWrapper" "execute ping google.com -t" #CURRENTCONFIG#
To

Code: Select all

LeftMouseUpAction=!CommandMeasure "cmdWrapper" "execute ping google.com -t" #CURRENTCONFIG#
Now the Left~Mouse~Down can move the skin... I would always using LeftMouseUpAction= to activate actions otherwise the skin cannot be moved.
