Second Notes skin

Post by The Gynophile »

Is there a way (I'm sure there is) to have a second notes skin on the screen? I'm using enigma, and I'd like to have bot a To Do list, and my class schedule up. I tried just creating duplicates of the config and the .txt, but that didn't work (I figured it would be more complicated than that, though). I also tried renaming the duplicates, and also putting them in their own folder, separate from the original Notes folder, entitled "Notes 2". Still no luck.

So, I've come to the conclusion that something needs to change in the config. Halp?

To duplicate any skin, just make a copy of its folder then right-click the Rainmeter icon in the taskbar and select "Refresh All" (or just restart Rainmeter completely) so that it appears in the list of skins. Then you can just launch it like any other skin.

Press "Restart Rainmeter" first... Then load the new skin.
