I could give you the whole code but that would be VERY big ...

Doesn't matter, please post the code.

I know some of "MeasureName" dont needed, but i use it for some tests

I will try to give you the compet code in simplified form (only one shortcut, image, etc.)

The posted codes don't help too much, but I see two mistakes in the LeftMouseDownAction option of the [Game1] meter:

• There are some not needed extra brackets, I marked them red here: LeftMouseDownAction=["[#@#Raccourcis\#URL1#]"]. Remove them: LeftMouseDownAction=["#@#Raccourcis\#URL1#"].
• Unlike in all programming languages (which Rainmeter isn't), in Rainmeter you can't add a comment to the end of an option. In most cases the comment is preventing the option to work properly. In your case, you've added such a comment into the LeftMouseDownAction option of the [Game1] meter: LeftMouseDownAction=["#@#Raccourcis\#URL1#"] // Here is the problem. Additinally the comment isn't even made with a semicolon (;), as it has to be done in Rainmeter, but with a double slash (as with in C). Remove that comment, or at least move it to the next line and use semicolon:

  Code: Select all

  [Game1]
  ...
  LeftMouseDownAction=["#@#Raccourcis\#URL1#"]
  ;Here is the problem

  If you keep the posted comment as you have it, the LeftMouseDownAction option can't even work.

Does the click work if you fix the above mistakes?

[Honimoura]

Sorry i have put //commentary only for you, it dont have it in original file.

Even with the correction it doesn't work. I've tried a number of ways to write it and it doesn't work. I think the problem is that the variable # URL1 # is equal to a measure, if I do "MeasureName" I get the result of the measure that the variable is linked to. But if I call the variable directly like with "LeftMouseUpAction" then I get the name of the measure and not its result ... which I don't understand ...

[Honimoura]

If i do :

Code: Select all

[VARIABLES]
URL=CalculeURL1
;CalculeURL1 is a checker shortcut

[Game1RAC]
Meter=string
Text=#@#Raccourcis\#URL1#
x=10r
y=200r
FontColor=255,255,255,255
DynamicVariables=1

I have : C:\blabla\CalculeURL1

But if i do :

Code: Select all

Meter=string
MeasureName=#URL1#
Text=#@#Raccourcis\%1
x=10r
y=200r
FontColor=255,255,255,255
DynamicVariables=1

So i have : C:\blabla\Dragon Ball Kakarot.lnk
Why first give me the name of the measure and second give me the value of the measure ?

Please pack the whole config which contains the posted skins and upload the package here, because I can't follow all those codes you have there. If you upload the package please indicate which skin do I have to load, where is the mistake.

[Honimoura]

You need to copy/past your plugin FileView.dll for have FileView, FileView2, FileView3, FileView4.
I tried to add it to the skin but it asks me for a 32 bit version also which I don't have ...

Which skin do i have to load? What have me to do, to get the issue? A few explanations please...
If you give me the above details, I'm gonna take a look tomorrow, because here the midnigh is coming and I'm gonna go to sleep.

[Honimoura]

no problem.
You need to load the button skin in Honimoura / Games /. By clicking on this skin it opens a "menu" which for the moment only displays an image corresponding to the first shortcut of the "Raccourcis" folder scanned by "scanLNK.ini" and the displayed image coming from the "Jaquettes" folder scanned by ScanIMG.ini.
By clicking on this image it launches the game (the shortcut) in question ... but that you may not have ... to test, you can add a shortcut in the "Raccourcis" folder in the first position and an image in the "Jaquettes" folder so that it shows you your software / game. And by clicking on this menu image, your software / game should start but the problem is precisely that it does not start ...
