Changing Applications on Bottom bar
How do I change the applications on the bottom bar. For example, I want to change the Net app from Firefox to Chrome and the Chat from Trillian to Pidgin
Re: Changing Applications on Bottom bar

Set "Google Chrome" as the name of the application as it appears. | Set "C:\Documents and Settings\Allen\Desktop\Chrome.exe" as the location of the app on your computer. | Set "NET" as a short description or subtitle for the app.
Version=2.7

Re: Changing Applications on Bottom bar
If that's what you changed, those are instructions.
Post the code, and we'll help.
There should be a section in [].
Underneath it it should say:
Meter=String.
Change the data there.
Or, press ctrl+F and search whatever it currently is to just find the location of what you need to change faster.

Re: Changing Applications on Bottom bar
Well... you kind of absolutely destroyed it.
I'd suggest redownloading it.
At the top, or in a seperate file such as Variables.inc there whould be a [Variables] section.
Underneath would be App1, App2, App3 and you change it after those.
So like:
App3=Google Chrome
App3Path=C:\Documents and Settings\Allen\Desktop\Chrome.exe
NEVER change the text within [] unless you know what you're doing and deciding to change the skin.
I'd suggest also reading Rainmeter 101 to help you along with things such as this.

Re: Changing Applications on Bottom bar
It's part my fault too.
I was the one who told you to go into the [Meter] part instead of [Variables]

Re: Changing Applications on Bottom bar
Notes as in notes you wrote before? Or the actual skin won't load?
If you want your old notes, I think they should be in Rainmeters backup folder.
