Yes, for sure. Let me do it and I'll be back soon.

Re: Syncing skins
Sound is working fine from other applications, but I don't think I have any other Rainmeter skins that produce sound.balala wrote: ↑March 14th, 2019, 7:19 pm Thanks.
I'm surprised, because I have both sound and the shadows. The balls have also been disappearing for me too (before have been fixed), but the sound is played and the shadows are there. So:
- About the sound: have you turned on the speakers (if needed)? (I hope you did). Are other skins playing the sounds?
- About the shadows: click the clock to hide it. You should have to see the shadows on the horizontal plane of the base (see the attached screenshot). Aren't they there?
Okay, the shadows are there, all right. I just hadn't looked for them with the clock hidden--my dumb mistake! But those shadows just make me think how much more work that skin must have been for you!

Re: Syncing skins
Ok, attached you can find a very simple skin. If you load it you have one single PLAY string. If you click it, the skin plays a half minute sound. Do you hear it?
Ok, don't worry, it happens to all of us sometimes to not notice a detail. Especially that those shadows are not extremely well visible, especially while the clock is displayed.
Yep, I worked quite much with the whole skin, but I enjoyed it. In fact I enjoy every work with any Rainmeter skin. I love this small program and what can be done with it.

Re: Syncing skins
Yes, loud and clear! Still no sound from the Pendulum, though.
In order to install this sound skin, I needed to update Rainmeter, from 4.3 r3273, to 4.3 r3294. After the update, my previous skins are a bit off! Some of the text is now overflowing the bottom of a window (font size increase?); some windows wrong location, etc. Will have to look further into it.

Re: Syncing skins
Well, this is weird, because I hear the sound when the balls on the pendulum are colliding. Don't know what to say, why you don't have the sound. Honestly don't know.

Re: Syncing skins
So, here is the implementation of this request. I used the same balls, didn't recolor them yet, so they are still grey. Someone who is better at image manipulation will have to recolor them, because I don't work with images. I just added the digits of time. However when you load or refresh the skin, still the old time and date are visible. But if you click it, it is hidden and the digits on the balls are shown (yep, at next click these are again hidden and the old clock is shown again).Yincognito wrote: ↑March 13th, 2019, 6:17 pm Wow, that's a really nice skin - you probably worked a bit on the TransformationMatrix formulas there! I know it's a finished work, but if you'll ever want to add something extra to it in the future, putting the H H : M M characters on the balls when animating it (to make them look like pool game balls, maybe even having diiferent colors) would make it even cooler...
As usual, you can change the time format of the [MeasureTime] measure, if desired.

Re: Syncing skins
Wow, that was fast! It was just an idea, not a "request" though, but since you took it literally, well, I can only be happy about itbalala wrote: ↑March 15th, 2019, 7:22 pm So, here is the implementation of this request. I used the same balls, didn't recolor them yet, so they are still grey. Someone who is better at image manipulation will have to recolor them, because I don't work with images. I just added the digits of time. However when you load or refresh the skin, still the old time and date are visible. But if you click it, it is hidden and the digits on the balls are shown (yep, at next click these are again hidden and the old clock is shown again).
As usual, you can change the time format of the [MeasureTime] measure, if desired.
Replace the old code with this one.
Please test it and let me know what you think about it.
I tested both your original skin (which lacked 3 balls in the middle, but I guess this was the problem that you said in your previous comments it needed to be fixed, so I guess it's the fault of the "old code" - since I took the first packed skin you posted here) and the skin with the digits on the balls and they worked fine. I didn't know I had to click it to put the digits on the balls, so at first I thought it didn't work, but eventually I figured it out and it's all good.
The images can be taken from the internet and resized, so it's not a problem. I'm good enough at image manipulation, so I can easily do it. However, what I had in mind was:
- the digits on the balls to be "curved", like a map that you put on a globe (I guess this involves a lot of skewing and stuff with the TransformationMatrix, so it's a challenge)
- the digits on the balls dynamically changing according to the current time
- the color of the balls dynamically changing according to the digits on the balls (e.g. if it's a 2 on the ball, the ball should be blue, and if it's a 6, green)
- this is only in theory, but making some balls solids and some stripes would have added a bit of realism to it as well
Anyway, like I said, this was just an idea, if you wanted to play with it, not a request. I guess such a "clock" would be significantly attractive to users, generating lots of downloads...but that's just a guess. Bottom line, my idea was meant to make your skin really "boombastic", for you own satisfaction and fame, if it makes any sense.

Re: Syncing skins
No, it wasn't fast enough, but this doesn't matter. I try to always update my skins, especially if I get an interesting request / idea (say it how want). And this was an interesting one.Yincognito wrote: ↑March 15th, 2019, 9:58 pm Wow, that was fast!

Ok, do it, let's see what we can get out of it. If you found / manipulated properly the needed images, having differently colored balls, post them back here and we'll see...Yincognito wrote: ↑March 15th, 2019, 9:58 pm The images can be taken from the internet and resized, so it's not a problem.

I'm not sure this can be done dynamically through Rainmeter code. At least for now I don't see a good way.Yincognito wrote: ↑March 15th, 2019, 9:58 pm However, what I had in mind was:

My mistake. A DyanmicVariables=1 option is required on the newly added [MeasureTime1Digit], [MeasureTime2Digit], [MeasureTime3Digit],Yincognito wrote: ↑March 15th, 2019, 9:58 pm - the digits on the balls dynamically changing according to the current time
[MeasureTime4Digit] and [MeasureTime5Digit] measures. Add them and the digits will always show the actual time.
Sorry for the mistake...
Probably both are possible, if we have the appropriate images, as discussed above.Yincognito wrote: ↑March 15th, 2019, 9:58 pm - the color of the balls dynamically changing according to the digits on the balls (e.g. if it's a 2 on the ball, the ball should be blue, and if it's a 6, green)

Re: Syncing skins
Thanks - I'm never out of ideas, LOL.
Working on it as we "speak"...
Done - it works. However, you have another mistake (sorry about that, I'm direct with people): when resizing the balls, the digits are misplaced, and probably not resized as well (my guess is that they retain their default original position). I tried increasing the size of the balls to 400 and the digits were not centered on the balls and some were a bit outside the ball area. Thinking about it, I'm not sure this is a mistake, since initially the skin wasn't made to show digits on the balls, so when you added that feature, you probably forgot to adjust the digits' position and/or size to the new position and/or dimension of the balls...balala wrote: ↑March 15th, 2019, 10:17 pmMy mistake.

That being said, I know a bit about Newton's cradle, so I assume the balls stoping their movement after a while is intentional (and physically correct), right?
