I'm using a Google Calendar skin that I modified.
What I'd like to do is recolor the date on the skin if that string contains certain words.
I promise that I've tried to find a solution before posting.
I believe that only the two commented lines are pertinent to my question. Rest is there if needed.
I would like for #Item2Title# string to determine which MeterStyle is selected.
Let's say, if "dog" is mentioned anywhere in #Item2Title# --> MeterStyle=StyleReaderDog instead of MeterStyle=StyleReaderSubtext. I'd imagine this is a combination of Regex & IfMatch?
Just wasn't quite able to crack this one, gents.
Thanks!

The new lines posted above need to be within their own measure, their own block in a way; they can't be added to a meter. Afterwards check that the variables match where needed, i.e. #Item1Title# vs. #Item2Title# and similar.

Man. Unsure of what to do. Your code looks like similar Q&A's ... it just doesn't seem to want to recognize [MeasureDateColor]

The order of styles, measures, and meters generally doesn't matter, but what most have it as is Styles, Measures, then Meters. This is the full code that works when changing the #Item1Title# variable between dog and dot for example.

I set all the variables for Item1 for this example in case that was causing problems.
I think some progress is being made!
Only thing is that it keeps going with IfNotMatchAction=[!SetOption ItemWhat1 MeterStyle "StyleReaderSubtext"][!UpdateMeter *][!Redraw]
So when I change the StyleReaderSubtext to StyleReaderDog (inside the IfNotMatchAction line written above) ... it changes the font.
I'm assuming this means that your conditions are good! --- it just needs to not always be FALSE
Just, what regex would be needed to make the IfMatch= work?
Also, strangely, your [Variables] thing is being overwritten somehow by the macro that pulls from Gcal.
To be sure, post your full code that you have like you did in your first post. What's posted above should work directly, it switches between the two styles when the variable is changed:

Is what I have. For some reason, the [Variables] does nothing. I think that the macro takes precedent.
Say I rename Item1Title=ABCD ... It will still appear Dog ... as that's what's on the Gcal
The [Variables] section here is just for this example to work. if the variables are already previously defined, you don't need to include it, and try changing the variables in where its defined in Gcal.
