Nested Conditions + Formulas

[Yincognito]

Aha, solved it

[balala]

Code: Select all

[sBar]
Shape=Rectangle 0, 0, #BarW#, -#BarH# | StrokeWidth 0 | Fill Color #Bg#
Shape2=Rectangle 0, ([#CURRENTSECTION#Total]<1 ? 0.00001 : (([#CURRENTSECTION#Used:]/([#CURRENTSECTION#Total:]+0.000001)*#BarH#))), #BarW#, 2 | StrokeWidth 0 | Fill Color [#C[#CURRENTSECTION]]
DynamicVariables=1
Hidden=([#CURRENTSECTION#Total:]=0 ? 1 : 0)
X=([#CURRENTSECTION#Used:]=0 ? 0 : 2)R
Y=#BarH#
;X=([mFUsed:]/([mFTotal:]+0.00001)*150+15)
X=([mFTotal]<1 ? 0.00001 : (([#CURRENTSECTION#Used:]/([#CURRENTSECTION#Total:]+0.000001)*-#BarH#)))
[m1]
Meter=Shape
MeterStyle=sBar
X=0

The second occurrence of the X option is in vain. As usually, Rainmeter ignores it.

Aha, solved it, there was a missing : in balala's code!

In this one? Sorry, I took over the Formula from your post.

Thanks you so much for helping.

You're welcome from my part.

Yes, but I didn't know that having not used division for 35 years!

Personally, I would write *(-#BarH#) instead. I'm not comfortable with two operations following immediately after one another, without some operation member between them.

You are not comfortable? Rainmeter isn't! The parenthesis are absolutely needed, otherwise the formula doesn't work.

Thanks balala, I understand about several X lines of code. Just testing trying to get it working. Been trying all day!

Been trying all day!

Good. We all do such things from time to time (me at least definitely do).

Well, I was trying to be gentle there. Too many mistakes for me to be straightforward about it, so I chose to be diplomatic instead.

...Thought it best to resurrect this thread as I have another issue with this but different skin.
Although I've used [#C[#CURRENTSECTION]] Variable successfully, I seem unable to get it working the other way: [#[#CURRENTSECTION]CPU]. This won't work and I have no idea how to make it work. Could you help please

Current Section = m1
Variable = m1CPU

I realised it should be like this: [#CURRENTSECTION[#CPU]], but that won't work either.

I've tried around 30 variations and nothing works. Why isn't this documented better! I keep having issues with it because there's very little info about how Nested Variables work. Sorry for my frustration.

I seem unable to get it working the other way: [#[#CURRENTSECTION]CPU].

Extremely hard to say anything meaningful, because have no idea how your code looks like. On a first and extremely simple approach this is working for me, but there might be lot of details, which could make a difference. Check to have added a DynamicVariables=1 option to the not-working measure / meter and if still doesn't work, post a sample code please.

Thanks balala, I ended up rewording the measures and variables to work the way I know works.
I just couldn't figure out what was doing wrong. Thanks anyway for your response
I'll be back...
