Launching Sound in control panel

Post by Dispiacere »

*I am new to this, sorry if this is badly worded or in the wrong section*

I have Visage hiding my task bar, and besides Start and Sound(so I can switch my default device) I don't use it and when I do I just make it visible again. I found a skin for a Start button, and decided that I wanted to make a simple launcher for my Sound. I already had a skin called Simple Launcher(http://browse.deviantart.com/customization/skins/sysmonitor/rainmeter/?q=simple+launcher#/d3kvw49) and thought that I would just make a path to Sound(mmsys.cpl)

I followed the directions on http://docs.rainmeter.net/tips/launching-windows-special-folders and it still didn't work.

Here is the code:

[APP7]
Meter=STRING
X=0
Y=26r
FontColor=255, 255, 255, 200
FontSize=20
FontFace=Segoe UI Light
StringStyle=NORMAL
StringAlign=LEFT
AntiAlias=1
SolidColor=0,0,0,1
Text="Sound"
LeftMousedownAction=[::{F2DDFC82-8F12-4CDD-B7DC-D4FE1425AA4D}]

That string didn't work for me either..

Try LeftMouseUpAction=["shell:::{F2DDFC82-8F12-4CDD-B7DC-D4FE1425AA4D}"]

or maybe you could use just LeftMouseUpAction=["sndvol"] or LeftMouseUpAction=["sndvol32"]
