Rainmeter Forums

To tell the truth:I'm poor in English,so hoping you know what I mean...

I'm learning programming for windows while writting plugins for rainmeter this summer holiday, and here's one of the plugin I've written.Some codes are searched from internet and I rewrite them.

Does anyone know how to link a .idl file? I've used a stupid way to realize NextWallpaper.

And I found the mediakey plugin hasn't use a hardware scan code,causing some programs can't receive the WM_HOTKEY message when media key is send.I don't know whether it's a bug and I just added the changed version to this plugin.

Example skin:(Right Click the (i)icon on top right to view the Introductions in English)
I'm not sure whether it will be needed so I just write the basic introductions.
Measure Options:

InfoType= (Default：None)
None :Return 0
IsFullScreen:The number value returns whether the current actived program fills the full screen (main monitor only).
ActiveProcess:The string value return the name of the current actived program,and the number value is IsFullScreen.

Showlog= (Default：0)
1 :Show zhe workarea and screenarea infomation in the log on refresh.
