Ok I understand, but if you see on the page you gave me, "ShapeEnding (optional): Leave the shape open (0 - default) or automatically close (1) the shape." We probably could fill with color with that no ?
I tried something, I would your opinion if I could work with this schema or not.
Do you think I could add some curves for create what I want or not ?

Re: Create my own circle skin
So what I'm saying is that you use somewhat "thick" curved "lines" to create the segments, and since once you have them all done and positioned you have created a logical 360 degree circle, you can just use some separate Ellipses that are slightly bigger or slightly smaller and just have solid stroke and no interiors to draw the "border" around things.

Re: Create my own circle skin
You can "close" a Curve shape, but that isn't what you want. Closing a curved shape just means drawing a straight line from the end back to the beginning using the shortest possible path, (aka, a straight line) like this:
Code: Select all
[Rainmeter]
Update=1000
DynamicWindowSize=1
AccurateText=1
[Variables]
[MeterShape]
Meter=Shape
Shape=Curve 100,250,400,250,250,360,1 | StrokeWidth 8 | Extend MyStrokeColor
MyStrokeColor=Stroke Color 255,0,0,255

Re: Create my own circle skin
And now we are back to my original answer... What you are trying to do can certainly be done, but yes, it's hard, really, really hard. I literally don't know where to start to draw some number of curved segments of some width that when positioned and rotated create a perfect "circle" of 360 degrees. This involves math that just makes me die a little inside.RoLv3r wrote:Indeed.. I'm lost with curves How I could do what I want.. that's so hard !
Our only hope is that balala or eclectic-tech or one of the math nerds takes pity on you...

Re: Create my own circle skin
I understand now.. Do you think it's more smart to do something more easy ?
