Hey,
I recently started using rainmeter and wanted to create my own desktop icons etc. I created an image for one of my programms and it worked out pretty well. However, when i try to activate another one, the first icon just disappears, the second shows up tho. How can i fix this problem? Script:
Icon 1:
[Rainmeter]
Update=1000
[ImageLaunch]
Meter=Image
W=200
H=50
ImageName=#@#Images\Discord\Discord.png
LeftMouseUpAction=["C:\Users\Florian\AppData\Local\Discord\app-0.0.305\Discord.exe"]
Icon 2:
[Rainmeter]
Update=1000
[ImageLaunch]
Meter=Image
W=200
H=50
ImageName=#@#Images\Steam\Steam.png
LeftMouseUpAction=["C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\Steam.exe"]
Thanks for your help!
[Edit:] I tried to put the images in seperate folders, didn't worked...

Re: Can't use two icons at once
Do you really want each of these to be in separate skins?Athurion wrote: ↑September 16th, 2019, 3:14 pm Hey,

If so, you have to put the actual skin .ini files in separate folders, under a single root config folder.
MyLaunchers
> @Resources
>> Images
>>> Discord.png
>>> Steam.png
> Launcher1
>> Launcher1.ini
> Launcher2
>> Launcher2.ini

Well, is there a way to use one Skin as a font for multiple links?
In any case thank you for your help!

Re: Can't use two icons at once
Sure, easy. Just be sure all [Sections] have distinct names.
Code: Select all
[Rainmeter]
Update=1000
DynamicWindowSize=1
AccurateText=1
[Image1Launch]
Meter=Image
W=200
H=50
ImageName=#@#Images\Discord\Discord.png
LeftMouseUpAction=["C:\Users\Florian\AppData\Local\Discord\app-0.0.305\Discord.exe"]
[Image2Launch]
Meter=Image
Y=10R
W=200
H=50
ImageName=#@#Images\Steam\Steam.png
LeftMouseUpAction=["C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\Steam.exe"]

Thanks a lot, really!
I already tried it with the seperate method and it worked, this one however might be quite better.

Re: Can't use two icons at once
I think it will be. It's certainly easier to add to and maintain. The only advantage at all to separate skins is that you can drag separate skins to different places on the screen as you like. Mostly, there is never a good reason to split them up when they are doing some common thing.
