PS to Yincognito: I'll answer you in the other topic in the near
Anyway, I've already started working on the next skin for my suite today. But as the devil will have it, he's annoying me.
It's about the color of the button changing to green when Firefox is open. Another part of the button should also turn green, but even blink.
The part that should turn green and blink works. However, the "only" green part of the button does not turn green when Firefox is active.
My guess is that I probably have to work with "Nested Variables" here, but it's just a guess. This is due to the fact that before the color change such as the flashing of the button takes place, I exchange some values via the MouseOverAction and MouseLeaveAction, as well as LeftMouseUpAction.
This causes a problem somewhere, and I don't know why.
Anyway, if I have to work with "Nested Variables", then *cough* I think I should ask for a help example on a silver platter. Because I absolutely don't understand the "Nested Variables". Even some posts here in the forum or on the Rainmeter documentation page don't make me any smarter.
But before I write any more novels, here's the part of the code where the devil ruins my day

The color values are exchanged by said mouse actions, where it ultimately does not work that the Extend FRAME and Extend BTNBG have the green color value, as well as the flashing when Firefox is open.
Ok, I hope I have described my problem as well as I can. If not ->
<- get out and ask me 
On end of this Post is an screenshot. There you can see that the Extend LED1 Shapes are green (and also blinking ... of course not in the screenshot
)BUT the button itself remains gray.
Here the Extend FRAME and Extend BTNBG should now also color them green, but this does NOT happen.
