I don't think it is possible. If both skins are relative you can move them together but what you are asking for is not possible.

Can't you use Padding=5,5,5,5 for this?

[Judian81]

no padding does nothing in use with the background image.

Padding is a meter related option. It can't be used on [Rainmeter] section (well, in fact it can, but has no effect), being usable only on meters.

Yes but I meant using it with a meter, like this:

Code: Select all

[Rainmeter]
Update=1000
DynamicWindowSize=1
AccurateText=1

[Bg]
Meter=Shape
Shape=Rectangle 1,1,220,65,5 | Fill Color 0,0,0,130 | StrokeWidth 2 | Extend StrokeAlpha
StrokeAlpha=Stroke Color 255,255,255,200
MouseOverAction=[!SetOption #CURRENTSECTION# StrokeAlpha "Stroke Color 100,100,200"][!UpdateMeter *][!Redraw]
MouseLeaveAction=[!SetOption #CURRENTSECTION# StrokeAlpha "Stroke Color 255,255,255,200"][!UpdateMeter *][!Redraw]
DynamicVariables=1
Padding=5,5,5,5

There is the HEX H skin suite, that manages to keep a snap in place effect with all of its HEX icons, maybe look at that. In conjunction with DragGroup=Name perhaps that will bring something close?

Yes but I meant using it with a meter, like this:

Yep, but this has no effect on how and where can the user drag the skin. The initial question was related on how could be kept a space between different skins.

[sl23]

I see, but surely this is the only way to achieve that?

EDIT: I guess this is more from users pov than skin makers pov?

He is moving a skin using !Move and there is a possibility that it may overlap with another skin. He doesn't want that to happen. And there is no way this can be done.
