Add DynamicVariables=1 to the Spherical note meters that use the variable should get it working.

Please help me, I'm completely new to this. Exactly what is systemColor.ini? I want to change the color of my clock widget, here is the file:

Code: Select all

[Rainmeter]
Update=1000


[MeasureTime]
Measure=Time
Format=%#I:%M

[TextStyle]
FontColor=
FontFace=Segoe
SolidColor=0,0,0,1

StringAlign=Right
AntiAlias=1


[MeterTime]
Meter=String
MeterStyle=TextStyle
MeasureName=MeasureTime
X=600
Y=0
FontSize=50

and yes i have no idea about systemColor.ini plz help

[balala]

Exactly what is systemColor.ini?

Especially if systemColor.ini has the code you've posted above, it's a skin file, used by Rainmeter.

I want to change the color of my clock widget,

Just add the desired color into the FontColor option of the [TextStyle] section. For instance if you add there the FontColor=255,0,0, you get red digits. For FontColor=0,255,0 you get them green, while for FontColor=255,240,0 you get them yellow. Obviously you have to add the color code associated with the desired color.
