QUESTION 1
Is it possible to fade in (or fade out) one meter with a !bang in Rainmeter?
I know it's possible to fade the whole Rainmeter skin in or out, but is it possible to do it only for a meter?
QUESTION 2
Is it possible to move one meter with a !bang in Rainmeter?
Again, I know it's possible to move the whole skin, but is it possible to do it for only one meter?
QUESTION 3
Is it possible to close one skin (not all of Rainmeter) with a !bang?
I know closing all of RM is possible.
Please answer as many questions as you know the answers to, I would like to finish my skin ASAP :P
Thank you,

Moves the given meter (i.e. not the window, but the meter) to a new location.

Hides the Rainmeter-window.
or
!RainmeterDeactivateConfig [Config]
Deactivates the configuration ini-file.
One (or both?) should work.

Alright, no need for such harshness. You know what they say, don't bite the newbies.jsmorley wrote: All your answers are in the manual: http://rainmeter.net/cms/Bangs_beta Time to start looking things up and not post URGENT messages here demanding that we do it for you.

Re: Fading, moving, and closing one meter with !bang - Urgentish
Not being harsh. Nobody objects to questions, it's what this forum is for. But you are basically going one bang at a time asking if it can be done when there is a manual page that lays it all out, and you can go look at it just as quick as we can. All I'm asking is that you meet us halfway and go skim through the manual to see what Rainmeter is capable of. Then when you get stuck (and we all do) feel free to ask for clarification.csm725 wrote: Alright, no need for such harshness. You know what they say, don't bite the newbies.

Re: Fading, moving, and closing one meter with !bang - Urgentish
After looking around IN THE MANUAL I found no way to fade a specific meter, only a group. (The group didn't work for me either...)
I place the line 'Group = GroupName1 | GroupName2" in the meter itself, right?

There is no way to fade a "meter", only a "config".csm725 wrote:After looking around IN THE MANUAL I found no way to fade a specific meter, only a group. (The group didn't work for me either...)

As to how to use Groups for a meter: http://rainmeter.net/cms/Skins-MeterMeasureGroups_beta That page describes exactly which bangs work with meter "groups". Any not listed, don't.

Okay, got the Groups working. Thanks.
Couldn't seem to find a definition, but what is the difference between a 'config' and a 'meter'?

As to Config "groups", that is here: http://rainmeter.net/cms/Settings-ConfigGroups_beta Those are defined in Rainmter.ini, not in the individual skins.
