In fact I updated it, including its next version into Mirage (see my above reply).
I meant, in that exact form, from a visual POV. If I'm not mistaken, your similar / updated equivalent from Mirage looks slightly different. I just liked those mini-timers the way they were designed back then.

Yeah, I got the background from the old Windows 7 gadgets, which I suppose / hope you're remembering.
After playing a little with the mirage timer, I find the older one is working more how I'd like. ie, pausing the timer doesn't seem to work in mirage, but that older 'gadget' style one works just fine.
Weren't hiding/showing meter groups available back then? Perhaps that may reduce the code a little?
I'm currently going through that code just renaming meters to suit my style so as to easily identify things. Just so i can see what's going, how things are working. Don't worry, I'm using my editors replace all function then saving and checking the skin after each edit.

If you're talking about the Timer skin and the Timer tab of the appropriate skin of Mirage, then yes, this is a difference.

I suppose were not, however I'm not sure at all. But if you want you can edit the code and add this feature.

Alright, this is the best way to:
Make the code easier to understand and work with.
Learn a lot of things.
So feel free to alter it as you want, just keep in mind that if you have any further question, post the rewritten code, because after you're altering it we don't have anymore the same code.

Thanks for the offer balala
Not sure which offer are you talking about, but you1re welcome.
I couldn't find any reference to them in the code. Are they obsolete?
No, it's not. It is used into the LeftMouseUpAction option of the [MeterSettingClose] meter, which is the OK button shown when the settings panel is open (it opens when you click the Set button in ht emain panel of the skin). I'm not sure anymore why have I added this as a variable and didn't add the appropriate bangs directly to the option, but the variable, as described, is used there.
