Idle Time Skin Not Working since updating to win10.2004

Post by CodeCode »

This used to work:

Code: Select all


[MeasureIdle]
Measure=Plugin
Plugin=SysInfo
SysInfoType=IDLE_TIME
IfCondition=MeasureIdle > 59
IfTrueAction=[!SetOption FormatTime Format "%2!i!:%1!02i!"]
IfFalseAction=[!SetOption FormatTime Format "%1!i!"]
MinValue=0
MaxValue=1199

[FormatTime]
Measure=Uptime
SecondsValue=[MeasureIdle]
DynamicVariables=1

[MeterIdleTime]
Meter=String
MeasureName=FormatTime
Fontsize=15
FontFace=#Font#
FontColor=#Color#
AntiAlias=1 
StringAlign=Center
x=99
y=20r
Text=%1
DynamicVariables=1
Has anything changed in Rainmeter in the past few betas?
I am using 4.4.0.3404

Hmm. I get nothing.

Any known Win10 setting that might forestall this functionality?

Nope. The only thing that comes to mind is if you have some utility of some kind running that is provoking or simulating mouse movements or keyboard strokes.

I'll have to look around, some new things sort of 'went on' after the update - like several settings being set to default and others to a custom-type of setting.

Nothing I have should be doing such actions.

I do have a couple of new things installed but none I am aware of that simulate key or mouse actions.

Doesn't work the skin at all or zou don!t get the appropriate format on the [FormatTime] meter? Because in second case you probably have to add a DynamicWindowSize=1 option to the [Rainmeter] section. For me the code does work, but it was required me to add this option, to see the change of what is shown.

I can see the text meter - all it shows is a zero; "0" and does not update when keypress and mouse actions have stopped.
It used to update immediately, but now does not at all.

Make sure you don't hit keys on keyboard and you don't move the mouse, because for me, same as for jsmorley, as he said above, the code does perfectly working. Leave the computer idle.
