I think you are overestimating needing nested variables to get the result.

I see no need for the [Variables]:

Code: Select all

Img1=#@#Img1
Img2=#@#Img2
Img3=#@#Img3
at all to be honest.

But if you really want to do it the hard(er) way, you could keep the [Variables] and do:

Code: Select all

[MeterSymbol]
Meter=Image
MeasureName=MeasureSymbol
Path=[#Img[&MeasureImg]]
X=0
Y=0
DynamicVariables=1
Just that in this particular case, I'm not sure I see any advantage to using [Variables] and nesting them with the [MeasureName].
we have removed the variables and it works without them :17good
Thank you very much !

Hi,
I would like to know if it is possible that when the temperature is displayed, it (the font) starts to color from bottom to top (like bar meter) and then stop

Actually it is, based on FreeRaider's idea.

Thanks FreeRaider for that great idea!!!

First you need an ActionTimer plugin measure. Add it as you see below:

Code: Select all

[MeasureSlide]
Measure=Plugin
Plugin=ActionTimer
ActionList1=Repeat Up,20,20
Up=[!SetVariable W "(Clamp((#W#+5),0,100))"]#U#
DynamicVariables=1
This measure uses two variables, which have to be added to the [Variables] section, beside the existing variables:

Code: Select all

[Variables]
...
W=0
U=[!UpdateMeasure "MeasureSlide"][!UpdateMeter "MeterTemp"][!UpdateMeter "Uptime"][!Redraw]
Color=255,240,0
The last variable (Color) is the color code which you'd like to use to color the temperature value.
You also have to add the following option to the [MeterTemp] meter:

Code: Select all

[MeterTemp]
...
InlineSetting=GradientColor | 90 | #Color# ; 0.0 | #Color# ; (#W#/100) | [#TempColor[&MeasureColor]] ; (#W#/100) | [#TempColor[&MeasureColor]] ; 1.0
(Again, just add this option, without modifying the existing ones).
This last option colors the temperature value from its base up to a point defined by the W variable. Because the value of this variable increases from 0 to 100 (once the [MeasureTemp] WebParser measure gets the value - see below the option required to do this), the temperature value is colored progresively.
The last needed thing is to start the [MeasureSlide] measure to run, once the [MeasureTemp] measure gets the value of the temperature. For this you have to add the following option to the [MeasureTemp] measure:

Code: Select all

[MeasureTemp]
...
FinishAction=[!Delay "1000"][!CommandMeasure "MeasureSlide" "Execute 1"]
The !Delay bang above is used to postpone the coloring with one second - you can renounce to it, if you don't want it.

I just want to mention one more thing: both options used in the [Rainmeter] section are deprecated. AppVersion isn't needed any more and Author has been moved to the [Metadata] section. You also should have to move it (although leaving them there isn't a problem).

Thank you for your reply
Exactly what I wanted, but ...
initially, the temperature color respects the temperature range from [measurecolor]
Now over the color, the yellow color is displayed.
I want the color corresponding to the temperature range to climb

And what color should it have before?

each temperature range displays the corresponding TempColor color (ex: under -45 degrees TempColor1 = 58.0,176 ,.....)

My question was related to the color of the string before the WebParser measure gets the temperature.

Finally this isn't too much important. Replace the InLineSetting option of the [MeterTemp] meter with the following one: InlineSetting=GradientColor | 90 | [#TempColor[&MeasureColor]] ; 0.0 | [#TempColor[&MeasureColor]] ; (#W#/100) | #Color# ; (#W#/100) | #Color# ; 1.0. The initial color of the string is set by the Color variable. If you rewrite it to white (Color=255,255,255), in the [Variables] section, it'll be ok.
But there is one more question: with these modifications, the color of the temperature value will follow the appropriate colors set through the TempColorXX variables, but won't be filled up when the temperature is changing. This is happening only once, just first time the WebParser measure gets the temperature. Would you like to fill it up with the new color, every time the temperature is changing?

now it's okay

yes,when the weather data is updated and the temperature corresponds to another temperature range
