RainRGB4.exe help and questions

ok tnx.
so it's a typo in my code.

That would be my guess...

Yeah it was human error. sucks loosing your eyesight.

have another question is it possible to use contextaction to toggle Celsius or Fahrenheit. i have searched and all i have found is manually changing it, creating a new ini that uses Fahrenheit (so i would have to ini files, not a bad idea) or using some settings panel. the settings panel looks like more work than i'm willing to do.
tnx

I would take a hard look at this:

You can certainly "convert" F to C or C to F using easy formulas, but I don't recommend it.

1) You would have to use the formula for every temperature the skin returns. Ick...
2) Why re-invent the wheel. If you set the Language Code to en-US you will get English / F and if you set it to en-GB you will get English / C.

oh thanks, i know when i open the set weather location option i could just change the language.
could i have that as an option in the context window?

Code: Select all

[Rainmeter]
Update=1000
DynamicWindowSize=1
AccurateText=1
ContextTitle=Set Imperial Units
ContextAction=[!WriteKeyValue Variables Language "en-US" "#@#SomeVariablesFile.inc"][!Refresh]
ContextTitle2=Set Metric Units
ContextAction2=[!WriteKeyValue Variables Language "en-GB" "#@#SomeVariablesFile.inc"][!Refresh]

[Variables]
@Include=#@#SomeVariablesFile.inc

god your so fast,
the Variables.inc that has the language shows it as Units=en-US.
the snippet you shared has language with no ".
do i not need to add Units to
ContextAction11=[!WriteKeyValue #@#Variables.inc Language "Units=en-GB"][!Refresh]

No, it would be:

ContextAction11=[!WriteKeyValue Variables Units "en-GB" "#@#Variables.inc"][!Refresh]

!WriteKeyValue SectionToWrite OptionToWrite "ValueToWrite" "FileToWrite"

[Hackit]

No, it would be:

ContextAction11=[!WriteKeyValue Variables Units "en-GB" "#@#Variables.inc"][!Refresh]

!WriteKeyValue SectionToWrite OptionToWrite "ValueToWrite" "FileToWrite"

Well, after work feel free to zip up and post the skin again. I can take a look.
