Conceptual clock that pour time.
7 color variations are included. And also you can set the colors and size as you like with the variables. (i.e. COLOR1, COLOR2, FONTSIZE ...)



Note:
This skin requires Rainmeter-1.2 Beta (r380) or higher

Have fun!

Very cool indeed. So the trick is in truncating the numbers with H= so you can display part in color and part in gray?

Man, you do some unbelievable stuff with Rainmeter...

Right. The lower color layer appears gradually as the above gray layer is truncated.
This basic logic is very simple.

Awesome

That's very clever kenz0! I also like your reverse use of the includes. Normally the settings are stored there but you've put the main code in a .inc file instead. I can imagine that must have cut down on quite a lot of code!

Also, if you're willing to take a bit of a CPU hit, it looks really cool if you set Update=100 and then add AverageSize=10 to each of the measures whose names start with CLIP_. Then you get this smooth filling effect, and it looks like it flushes when it hits zero.

:shock: wow wow wow

Thanks for an indeed interesting point. It's a really cool effect.
If skin size is made small enough, we shouldn't be troubled so much by the high CPU used.

You're crazy good at creating unique stuff. Keep it up :thumbsu:

Wow, very nice.

That works well, and I didnt notice too much of an effect on CPU which is a bonus.
