Stay on Top Help please?

[dubbie23]

Hello Rainmeter users!

I'm new to rainmeter and I'd like to know if this is possible. I've been trying this with my logo but if I start a maximized window it disappears. I hope that this can be done but I don't know.

Best regards,

Right click the skin --> Settings --> Position --> Topmost.

I have tried it alredy but it is still not working

Assuming that you 're not trying to position it above the taskbar, it should work. Which version of rainmeter are you using? Is the skin a simple image skin?

Im using a single image and im positioning it above my taskbar.

I'm using "stay on top" with 2 small skins, placed on top of the taskbar.

Select "Stay topmost" if you want it to appear above your taskbar.

I have a side question about the layers. If you put things to "Stay Topmost", they stay above the task bar, which is what I want, but they are also above anything that goes full screen, which I don't want. Anyway around that?

No, not really. that is the downside to having a skin that rides on top of the Windows taskbar. If you don't set it to "Stay Topmost", then it fights with Windows, (and Windows pretty much wins) if you do, then the skin will stay visible when you watch full screen videos or even some games.

Either Raingame or in your Rainmeter.ini add something like

Code: Select all

TrayExecuteM=!ToggleFadeGroup MySkins

[MyConfig\MySkin]
Group=MySkins
