Your mistake, not mine - I can't help if you're unable to domesticate that little mouse...
I'm not stressed when writing such formulas - it's others being stressed when "only" reading them.
It was more that I don't need it to resize as this skin will be combined into another clock skin.Yincognito wrote: ↑August 2nd, 2021, 12:52 pm Correct. It's actually $MouseX:%$, because then you don't depend on knowing the exact pixels and you can play with more or less approximate percents. These will still depend on the font characteristics and spacing, so if there is a flaw to it, this is it. It's not a big one though, and since sl23 refused the resizing feature, I reckon he won't dynamically change fonts every time the skin is running, so it's a "calculated risk", if you like.
Actually, that's more or less intentional, and a very nice side effect, IMHO. But then, since you don't like the minute changing to the next when the seconds get past 60, the fact that you don't like this effect either goes without saying.
I did as well, just didn't like my high school teacher: she gave only bad grades cause I didn't like to do the math she wanted me to and did my own instead. Oh and never did my homework either. Eventually got a maximum grade when presenting my polinomial / 2D / 3D / polar function graph program ... but at computer science, not math. If she only knew...
I know, I prefer it this way as well - and it was easier for me too without the resizing.
Told you.
I never said you couldn't learn from working with someone else's code, no matter who he is - I only said it's easier/quicker to start from scratch, because of the reasons I already mentioned AND the fact that you can then go in smaller steps, bit by bit - something you also noticed now. In other words, you don't have to deal with everything (and more complex things) at once, as own code is an "evolution" from simple to more complex, and that is smoother for everyone, not just for newbies. In the end, just like for everything, a balance between the two approaches is the most feasible, depending on the scenario.Yes, it can be done - I knew you'd want that, as the effect is really good looking indeed. That being said, as far as I can see, death.crafter already did that, as he took my code as a base. I did notice a side effect in his code though, not sure if that's intentional: when resetting, it always resets to the initial 1 minute and not to the "last" time value before the timer was last run.sl23 wrote: ↑August 2nd, 2021, 1:58 pmOnly one thing remains, I'd like the Hours, Minutes and Seconds Meter to highlight each on MouseOver. I got this working on balala's code by separating the Measure into 3 Meters. Can this be done here? If it's too much, then don't worry, It's just something I do in all my skins to show it's clickable or scrollable.
Actually, splitting Uptime is not really needed. You can create 3 String measures where you separately capture the H, M, S and then use them in corresponing meters. Just make sure those new measures belong to the TimerGroup as well, so that they are updated and all when the other two are.
I didn't indulge much in to working of the skin so I didn't notice that.Yincognito wrote: ↑August 2nd, 2021, 2:30 pm Yes, it can be done - I knew you'd want that, as the effect is really good looking indeed.

I'm sure you could, but tbh honest, I'm happy with what you two have done, thank you so muchdeath.crafter wrote: ↑August 2nd, 2021, 2:50 pmIf you change the code a bit you can get Yincognito's implementation of continuous increment-decrement.
I didn't separate the uptime text.
