Random value doesn't update

Post by Swester »

Hi everyone;

I'm new using rainmeter and I only modified some skins for now and I'm finally trying to do my first skin.
My skin just needs to print a random integer (from 0 to 9) into a dice. When clicked, the value should change. Here is my problem : it doesn't change.

Here is my code :

Code: Select all

[Variables]
color = 80,80,80

[Random]
Measure = Calc
Formula = Random
LowBound = 0
HighBound = 9

[DiceValue]
Meter = String
MeasureName = Random
Text = %1 
DynamicVariables=1
AntiAlias = 1
FontColor = #color#
FontSize = 22
FontWeight = 700
X = 38
Y = 25
LeftMouseUpAction = [!Update][!Redraw]

[Dice]
Meter = Image
ImageTint = #color#
ImageName = D10-1.png
H = 100
LeftMouseUpAction = [!Update][!Redraw]
I just can't find why the random value doesn't update...

Thank you !

I finally found out :
I had to add the ligne

Code: Select all

DynamicVariables = 1
to [Random]

Another solution is to not set the dynamic variables, but to add an UpdateRandom=1 option to the same [Random] measure.
