You'll want to specifically look at the diskChunkY variable, for that is what defines how tall each disk section is.

Play with those until you get the results you want. I'm not at my PC so I can't test, but I think if you change diskChunkY to ((#rowYOffset# * 2) + 1), it should do the trick.

Thanks for the reply.

I've edited the files and now it looks like what I wanted. A minimal problem though: the overall skin edge shifted to the left by 1 or 2 (or maybe 3) pixel i think.

Here a ss:
Skins snapped at the right end of the screen. If snapped to the left there is no problem like this.

My bad!

I started from scratch with the default skin and this time deleted the lines step by step and refreshed the skin, dragged around to see if it is still working as it should be and ta daaaa

Somehow deleted a irrelevant line i guess. And now it is PERFECT, at least for me

Thank you again for this great suite and your patient support...

Glad you got it working! I really didn't appreciate just how many people still use these gadgets. Maybe, just MAYBE, I'll port ModernGadgets to illustro's style and release it as a 2.0 for illustro Gadgets. I wanted to abandon this project, but you might have just revived it for a while.

Hope you enjoy it!

This! This is music to my ears! Of course people still using because illustro is a very good suite and yours is an addition none should miss. Hope you find time and motivation to portmodern gadgets functionality to illustro gadgets. Just a little request in advance: please add functionality to remove the read write speeds from drive meter

Looking forward to see this updated.

Thank you again.

So it’s actually going to be easier than I thought. This is the result of five minutes (yes, FIVE MINUTES) of work. It’ll definitely be possible to do it.
Just need to do a bit of tweaking and it’ll be all set. I’m so glad that I made everything easily changeable!

Don't want to stress you but can't beat my excitement, any progress on this?

Patience is a virtue.

I’ll be updating the code on GitHub as I go. It will take a while though, because I do have a life and don’t have very much free time at the moment. If you want to see the progress, click the GitHub link in my signature and look at the illustro Gadgets Repository.

Right now though, all of the changes are still local on my computer, so you won’t see any of the changes until I push it to GitHub’s servers later today.

Thanks and have a nice day sir
