Hijri Date Gadget

[astromaz]

Assalam Alaikum, I am solely using Rainmeter so that I can know what is today's Hijri date. Is there any gadget for this? Please help.

Use the Time measure's FormatLocale option.

Here is an example:

Code: Select all

[HijriDate]
Measure=Time
Format=%#c
FormatLocale=ar

You may need change the Format option to suit your needs.
If you want to use a different locale, you can find a link to the official Microsoft list in this option: https://docs.rainmeter.net/manual-beta/measures/time/#TimeStampLocale

(Of course you will also need a Meter to display the date.)

Nobody here is really in the business of making skins for people (see here).

However, I can give you a simple 'complete' example.

Here is the code:

Code: Select all

[Rainmeter]
Update=1000
AccurateText=1

[MeasureHijriDate]
Measure=Time
Format=%#c
FormatLocale=ar

[MeterDate]
Meter=String
MeasureName=MeasureHijriDate
SolidColor=0,0,0,255
FontColor=255,255,255

Obviously this doesn't look too great (just white text on a black background) so if you want it to look different, you will have to make some modifications to make it look the way you want it to.

Here are some guides and tips:
