Time Problem

Youkai1977 · Post by **Youkai1977** » October 31st, 2018, 4:33 pm

Hello everybody,

I'm new here in the forum and despair. Now I have the soft hope that you can help me.
Just do not laugh, with my english. I speak German and English does not suit me at all. That's what you read here, Aunt Google has translated me.

So my problem is my programmed alarm clock in my clock. If the alarm time is 00:00 (24 hour format), then I am always 0: 0 displayed. I can not get it if the set alarm time is 00: 00h, it is displayed to me as synonymous. Where is the mistake, I can not get it.

Who can help?

Here a Screenshot from my problem:

Here the Code (complete):

Add RegExpSubstitute to your 2 MinMax measures [MeasureMinMaxHourAlarm] & [MeasureMinMaxMinuteAlarm]
This will add a zero to the string value if the measure value is only 1 digit. Because these are used in a string meter [AlarmTimeON], the substituted string values will be used; the number values of the measures will still be single digits.

Code: Select all

...

[MeasureMinMaxHourAlarm]
measure=calc
formula=#ValueHourSet#
DynamicVariables=1
ifconditionmode=1
IfCondition=(#ValueHourSet# < 0)
IfTrueAction=[!SetVariable ValueHourSet "23"]
IfCondition2=(#ValueHourSet# >= 24)
IfTrueAction2=[!SetVariable ValueHourSet "0"]
Disabled=1
Group=mALARM | ALARM
RegExpSubstitute=1
Substitute="^(\d$)":"0\1"

[MeasureMinMaxMinuteAlarm]
measure=calc
formula=#ValueMinuteSet#
DynamicVariables=1
ifconditionmode=1
IfCondition=(#ValueMinuteSet# < 0)
IfTrueAction=[!SetVariable ValueMinuteSet "55"]
IfCondition2=(#ValueMinuteSet# >= 60)
IfTrueAction2=[!SetVariable ValueMinuteSet "0"]
Disabled=1

Yes Perfect. That was what I was looking for. You are my hero of the day

I have to admit, I'm working longer with Rainmeter. But my handling or programming of skins is based on looking at what code is causing. Due to the fact that the help for Rainmeter is mostly only available in English, it makes it difficult for me to learn problems with skin programming. In short, actually, it is often obvious if one would understand the language

Ok, as a thank you there is my alarm clock to download. Maybe somebody might like him: -> https://filehorst.de/d/cGHwbAtD

I'm sure you are aware of this, but you can view the manual in your preferred language, with a caveat.

https://translate.google.com/translate?hl=&sl=auto&tl=de&u=https%3A%2F%2Fdocs.rainmeter.net%2Fmanual%2F&sandbox=1

I will caution however, that this will also "translate" the keywords used in Rainmeter, which you must not do in your skins. I guess you could have two tabs open, one in English, to be sure you are using the correct syntax, and one in German, where perhaps the explanations and other text are more clear. As clear as Google Translate gets at least...

Never be afraid to ask here if you are not sure about something. Folks here are glad to help.

@jsmorley:

The programming terms are also translated into German I know. Did that already * lol *. But well, as long as you know to use brain.exe reasonably well, that should be the case

Do not worry, I will continue to have a question. And in the future maybe someone can help. Even if you have to guess, thanks to Google Translator, one or the other of my texts, what the dear Youkai means

Therefore, I'm glad to have found a forum, where people still like to help

I've just searched for an alarm clock and your's was the first I came across.
Excellent job, thank you for sharing it

Is there a way to get it to both remember the alarm time and stay active?
Currently, it resets after activating the alarm.

There also appears to be a 'bug' where the skin is wider than visible until you click to show alarm setting.
