First thank you for installing sublime-rainmeter :welcome:

It requires Rainmeter installed. If you did not install it in the default directory (which is C:/Program Files/Rainmeter) it tries to search for it in your registry. There is a chance, that you installed it in portable mode, that way it has no way to identify where it is installed.

Use rainmeter_path to specify where your Rainmeter is installed like in my installation:

Code: Select all

{
	"rainmeter_path": "E:\\Visuals\\Rainmeter",
	"rainmeter_skins_path": "D:\\Documents\\Rainmeter\\Skins",
}
If it did not find it, it should have thrown you an error dialog.


Also just stating the obvious: most of the tools are only available if you are in a Rainmeter skin

Thanks thatsIch

Now I am getting a red/pink highlight (error?) on the semicolon after "rainmeter_skins_path":

It can't save the addition of the rainmeter_pathline now.

The whole thing looks like this:

Code: Select all

{
	"rainmeter_path": "C:\\Program Files\\Rainmeter"
	"rainmeter_skins_path": "C:\\Users\\Morbane\\Documents\\Rainmeter\\Skins"
}
Opps - attention to detail = -1 haha

I added the commas - now it saves - but I still am not getting the menu options I mentioned in my OP.

Rainmeter is installed and I have an active skin .ini in the window.

I have the default Rainmeter highlighting working nicely.

I just feel that there is so much more, if I can just get the basic functionality going at 100%.

No, the unregistered version has the full functionality of the registered version, just the "annoying" message.

Do you use Sublime Text 2? I am currently developing for Sublime Text 3. On my side ST2 is not maintained/supported anymore.

https://www.sublimetext.com/3

if you are using Sublime Text 3, could you please post me your console log?

View > Show Console

post it on something like http://pastebin.com/

Thank you for your report. I am quite baffled. In the image you send, it suggests that you are using a version at most 2.7.1 but the latest is 2.9.0. I also see that you have Package Control installed. I assume you used that to install Rainmeter?
If not please follow the steps provided at https://github.com/thatsIch/sublime-rainmeter#with-package-control

You should get an entry in Tool > Rainmeter > Color Picker

Also just more steps to verify:
In your AppData\Roaming\Sublime Text 3\Installed Packages folder should be a Rainmeter.sublime-package file around 644 KB in size. If it is smaller, please try to run CTRL + SHIFT + P, Upgrade Package on Rainmeter

@thatsIch

Any chance for snippets?

The shortcut meter/measure formats in Notepad++ from whoever are awesome.

You can access the snippets in 2 ways:
1. Type 't' in the document, to show a popup list of template snippets for meters and measures.
2. Select 'Tools' menu and 'Snippets...' for a window list.
