[BUG] Shadow InlineSetting support of dynamic variables

[Yincognito]

Code:

Code: Select all

[Variables]
Offset=1

[Rainmeter]
Update=1000
AccurateText=1
DynamicWindowSize=1

[MeterString]
Meter=String
Text=Onett
X=0
Y=0
AntiAlias=1
Padding=10,0,10,0
SolidColor=128,128,255,255
FontSize=32
InlineSetting=Shadow | #Offset# | #Offset# | 0 | 255,0,0,255
MouseScrollDownAction=[!SetVariable Offset (#Offset#-1)][!UpdateMeter *][!Redraw]
MouseScrollUpAction=[!SetVariable Offset (#Offset#+1)][!UpdateMeter *][!Redraw]
;MouseScrollDownAction=[!WriteKeyValue Variables Offset (#Offset#-1)][!Refresh]
;MouseScrollUpAction=[!WriteKeyValue Variables Offset (#Offset#+1)][!Refresh]
DynamicVariables=1

Expectation: The Shadow offset should change dynamically
Result: The Shadow offset doesn't change dynamically, so I have to use !WriteKeyValue and !Refresh bangs (commented above) as a workaround.
Question: Is this the expected behavior, a bug, a small note missing in the manual about the behavior? Something else that I missed? How to achieve it without refreshing the skin (or creating another meter to act as a "shadow" in the background)?

Good catch. This has been fixed for the next beta.

This also happened when dynamically changing the "blur" value as well.

Yep, it wasn't my catch actually - it was discovered by nek here. I only posted the issue in the Bugs & Features section - can't believe I didn't notice it before, even though I worked with this kind of stuff on other posts.

This fix has been released in the latest r3403 version of Rainmeter 4.4.
