Re: Help With Chameleon Plugin
Well, the background has pixels of all kinds of different colors, and you have to use the proper ones to get the expected result, so that might explain the wonkiness. Other than that, some (not so simple, as it involves a bit of math, see HSL and HSV on Wiki) might also be needed to convert them into what you need...

Re: Help With Chameleon Plugin
Is Chameleon Plugin working after the latest Windows 11 update?
This is my Windows Specifications:

Version: 24H2
Installed on: 24-05-2024
OS build: 26100.712
Experience: Windows Feature Experience Pack 1000.26100.6.0

So why should it not be working? Is one of your skins showing strange behavior for you? If yes, which skin (please upload it)? Describe, how the sin should work and the reason why you think it is not working properly. We need some more rainmete-related details, please!

As you can see all skins are black and white. They should take color from the desktop. This is the problem.
Here is my color code for chameleon:
Code: Select all
;==================================Desktop Based Color=================================
[MesDeCol]
Measure=Plugin
Plugin=#ColPlug#
Type=Desktop
ContextAwareColors=0
[MesDeCol1]
Measure=Plugin
Plugin=#ColPlug#
Parent=MesDeCol
Format=Dec
Color=Foreground1
[MesDeCol2]
Measure=Plugin
Plugin=#ColPlug#
Parent=MesDeCol
Format=Dec
Color=Foreground2
[MesDeCol3]
Measure=Plugin
Plugin=#ColPlug#
Parent=MesDeCol
Format=Dec
Color=Background1
[MesDeCol4]
Measure=Plugin
Plugin=#ColPlug#
Parent=MesDeCol
Format=Dec
Color=Background2
[MesDeColChanger]
Measure=Plugin
Plugin=#ColPlug#
Parent=MesDeCol
Format=Dec
Color=Luminance
OnChangeAction=[!Delay 250][!Refresh]
IfCondition=MesDeColChanger <= 0.5
IfTrueAction=[!SetVariable DesktopColor1 "[MesDeCol1]"][!SetVariable DesktopColor2 "[MesDeCol2]"][!SetVariable DesktopColor3 "[MesDeCol4]"][!SetVariable DesktopColor4 "[MesDeCol3]"][!SetVariable DesktopColor5 "[MesDeCol1]"]
IfFalseAction=[!SetVariable DesktopColor1 "[MesDeCol4]"][!SetVariable DesktopColor2 "[MesDeCol3]"][!SetVariable DesktopColor3 "[MesDeCol2]"][!SetVariable DesktopColor4 "[MesDeCol1]"][!SetVariable DesktopColor5 "[MesDeCol3]"]
I am using version 1.6.3.0
This was working perfectly. However, after installing the latest Windows 11 on 24/05/2024 it stopped working.

Re: Help With Chameleon Plugin
As i'm not on the preview channel i can not test it and only speculate. Maybe something has changed in the way the wallpaper is stored on windows and the plugin can not find it anymore and black and white are fallback-colors?
Does someone else being on the preview channel also experience chameleon erros?

Re: Help With Chameleon Plugin
Personally, I'm still on Win 10, so if this has anything to do with the Windows version, I wouldn't be able to test. Maybe others on the latest Win 11 can share their experience with it. Generally speaking, if the Chameleon plugin didn't work on Win 11 I suppose we'd see some reports regarding that on its page. I only briefly read a few of the last posts there and, bar a crash issue on Win 11, I couldn't find anything about that. If it actually works, maybe the code is the problem - just guessing here, of course, but you could try its sample skins to see if they work or not.
