I will try with your suggestion, but to see issue you have to have sharp eyes as the difference is just for +15 of transparency.
Once it is showed as 255,255,255,15 and another time as 255,255,255,30 (doubled).
If you want, you can change it to:

Code: Select all

IfTrueAction=[!SetVariable "colorBar" "255,255,255,150"][!Redraw]

Code: Select all

SolidColor=255,255,255,150
just to see the color difference a bit better.

Sorry, I still can't see...
But when you try it, let me know if my suggestion helped.

The issue disappeared with your last code. Thx! It does just I wished, to hide-disable BarColor when no drive in since color change cause a mixture as far as transparent things are concerned. That's it.

And a line about my old code. I guess you're having a bright desktop background and it's why you see no color change. Neither I see it when the skin is over brights, but here is how it looked like over dark one, as the thing we are watching is pretty bright:

It's with the latest two color values I suggested you to change(transparency =150).

Thank you once more balala!

Actually it hides the Bar and shows the Image meter when there is no connected device and vice-versa, it shows the Bar and hides the Image meter if there is one. Nothing is disabled. Take care of terminology, measures can be enabled or disabled, while meters can be shown or hidden.
And I'm glad if I could help.

Got it, but we could do with it if there is a command to disable meters as well. The past examples taught me it.
