bangs from command line

Post by r.amse.s »

i'm just trying to start the rainmeter from the commend line with this bang but doesn't happen anything

"C:\Program Files\Rainmeter\Rainmeter.exe" !Manage

also with the optional param doesn't work

"C:\Program Files\Rainmeter\Rainmeter.exe" !Manage Layouts

without bangs rainmeter is starting from command line and also using another bang like e.g. !LoadLayout

can anybody confirm that this is a bug?

Rainmeter has to be running in order to receive bangs.

Only the !LoadLayout bang may be sent to Rainmeter when it is not already running. That allows you to start Rainmeter with a particular layout. All other bangs require that Rainmeter be running to "receive" the bang.
