I think the problem is that you have a ton of meters, and you didnt define a place for the meters to be displayed. Because of this, they are all displayed at a default location, all at the same time. SO basically, all the meters are over lapping. Try adding X and Y coordinates to each meter, make sure they are different for each meter.

Oh no. I usued "#HideAll#" and i think it's no problem.

Right.
First of:
[RainMeterShowMeter MeterSecond] will NOT work. [!RainMeterShowMeter MeterSecond] will.

Second:
To get all the meters away, you have to add Hidden=1 to each of them (or just the style, I think). That way they will all be hidden from the start, then it will be calculated by what hour it is (the !RainmetershowMeter part) and the correct text will be displayed.

I'm a little curisous. What is #HideAll# supposed to do? It is a variable, but it's not linked to anything.

That only works when its linked to a variable.

Can you give me examples ?

You also have to hide the meter's that you don't want displayed.
You tell rainmeter to display a text when %H>05, then that text will stay displayed until you tell it to hide again.

So, for example. The time is 03. That means that we've told rainmeter to display "Midnight" and "Small hours".
Why? Well because we told rainmeter to show "Midnight" when %H=00. It did. Then it turned to %H>03. Then rainmeter displayed "Small hours". And as we haven't told rainmeter to hide "Midnight", it will still be displayed.

So, we have to hide the meters that we don't want displayed.

[MeasureSmallHours]
Measure=Time
Format=%H
IfAboveValue=00
IfAboveAction=!Execute #HideAll#[!RainMeterShowMeter MeterSecond][!RainMeterShowMeter MeterHoursMinute][!RainMeterShowMeter MeterSmallHours][!RainmeterHideMeter MeterMidnight]

Get it?

Thanks. Say more : we can delete "#HideAll#[!RainMeterShowMeter MeterSecond][!RainMeterShowMeter MeterHoursMinute]" without any error. Right ?

Yeah. You can get rid of that part. MeterSecond and MeterHoursMinute isn't hidden, so they shouldn't be effected by any of that.
