Hello All,
Just wondering if it would be possible to create a skin that places shapes at the corners of the display to make the display appear to have rounded corners. The corners could have a definable radius in the settings (probably like 0-25px radius.)
Any links would be tops!
Thanks,
R

Re: Rounded Screen Corners
Or try this:
Code: Select all
[Rainmeter]
Update=-1
OnRefreshAction=[!ZPos 2]
[Variables]
CornerRadius=50
CornerColor=192,192,192
[MeterShapeCorners]
Meter=Shape
X=0
Y=0
Shape=Rectangle 0,0,(#ScreenAreaWidth#),(#ScreenAreaHeight#) | Fill Color #CornerColor# | StrokeWidth 0
Shape2=Rectangle 0,0,(#ScreenAreaWidth#),(#ScreenAreaHeight#),#CornerRadius# | Fill Color 0,0,0,0
Shape3=Combine Shape | XOR Shape2

Re: Rounded Screen Corners
Hi ! First of all, thank you guys for the code.
For my personal tastes, Win11's rounded corners aesthetic should be matched to rounded screen corners.. So after a bit of googling, I've made an rmskin package based on by copy pasting your codes. The corner radius is matched to Win11's window corners.
And it works perfectly with RoundedTB tweaks!
Again, many thanks !

Re: Rounded Screen Corners
This doesn't work in fullscreen games. I have turned off game mode in rainmeter.
Anyway to make this settings stick even while gaming full screen ?

Re: Rounded Screen Corners
After seeing rounded corners on edges, its hard to go back to sharp rectangular ones. I am now using tape to mask it as I realized there is no soft solution for it like Displaperture but for windows

Re: Rounded Screen Corners
Yeah, the thing is, while Rainmeter can simulate that with a skin, it won't be able to do that in software it has no control over, like for example, the games you mentioned.justachild wrote: ↑March 13th, 2022, 7:28 am After seeing rounded corners on edges, its hard to go back to sharp rectangular ones.
