I don't think it would be possible with one single measure. But using the [MeasureAverageTemp] measure is a good solution. Why would like to not use it?

Because a 20 core CPU would need 20 measures for each core and then an average leaving me 21 measures to deal with. It's not the most fun thing to do.... If I could find a simpler solution, maybe something like:

Not just by the plugin. Nor Rainmeter doesn't support to add more times the same option to any section.
Sorry, but I think you'll have to deal with all those 21 measures.

In theory, it shouldn't be too hard to add this option to the plugin if you let it work like this right?

Yep, if the plugin measure would support those options. But don't forget that the CoreTemp plugin reads the info returned by the CoreTemp app and this kind of approach doesn't work and I doubt it will (at least not in the near future, I think).

Not to split hairs or anything, but actually an Intel processor only needs 1 measure per PHYSICAL core (so 10 in your example), while an AMD processor would only need 1 since it doesn't report temps per core. If you want a skin to handle any case, create 20 or 36 or however many measures (with minimal attributes set) and configure the whole batch as needed via a Lua script (trying to do it with straight Rainmeter works too, but is way more effort). You could even do the averaging with Lua and eliminate that calc measure.
