Sliding Sidebar

Post by Alloutofmercy »

I have never seen a sidebar opening when hovered or toggled. But I managed to make this white thing using action plugin. Is there a way I could convert my sidebar to the one on the left ? Here is the code for my still in progress sidebar

Not sure, what you mean by like the left. It seems to work fine, does it not?

Unless you want another one on the right?

Short version (for on the right option)
Create a new meter with unique name.
Copy everything into that meter.
Change all of the X values to be subtracting rather than adding.

But from the video clip it looks like there are two boxes that expand - your white one, and then the red one?

Is there anything less general about what's troubling you?
Nice job with the action timer. That one kills everyone, in some small way but frustrating. You beat that hurdle pretty good.

Same way as CodeCode, I also am not sure what you mean by "sidebar opening" or by "convert my sidebar to the one on the left". The code provided creates a completely static skin. Doesn't slide out, doesn't move at all, not even if I manually execute any of the two actions of the ActionTimer plugin measure (the plugin is ActionTimer, not Action, but this is justa detail). So not sure what you want, please give us a few details. If it would move definitely was possible to move from the other side, if this is your intention, but so far am not sure about your intention.

Ok so the one on the right, [the completete skin] dosent move, But the one on the right does. Is there any way I could integrate my skin into the one on the left ? More like enigma sidebar. In enigma sidebar, I think they are all seperate skins but I'd rather have it all in one piece.

Definitely can't follow you. The provided code is the code of which skin? The one on left or the one on right?

Code is for the one on the right. All I wanted to ask was if there was a way to make my sidebar [Pirate]skin like the one on the left without rewriting it completely. Make it slide or something when I hover over it or set up a toggle button. Just like the enigma sidebar

While you can, they won't perform well. It's better to just integate all your skins to a sidebar and make use of containers to make the animations. Would be a hell lot easier.

Without using a container, you can show/hide groups of skins by use a skin group to identify every skin you want to be part of the sidebar.

Decide on a name for the group, let's name it 'PirateSidebar'. You add a skin to this group by adding Group=PirateSidebar to the [Rainmeter] section of each skin.

To control them use skin group bangs in another skin; !ToggleGroup PirateSidebar.

This will show/hide/toggle every skin in that group. It is not an animated slide bar, but it is how Enigma does it.

Using a container is going to be more difficult since you are working with individual skins, not meters in a single skin. It could probably be done...
